台灣人用 番茄 一詞
西紅柿 在台灣是個罕用詞
大概只有餐廳主廚或美食家會用得上這個詞
說西紅柿會讓一般人""摸不著頭腦""
在台灣閩南與客家方言裡頭
不用番茄 而用日語 トマト

well, in oral chinese, people around me don't really care if you say 番茄 or 西红柿,they are the same for us. but when you take an order in a restaurant you will mostly see 西红柿 on the menu, such as 西红柿炒鸡蛋, 西红柿鸡蛋汤, etc. hope this can help a little. ^^

在粤语里基本上都说“番茄”,很少说“西红柿”。普通话里面两种说法都有。
个人觉得现在可能更普遍用“番茄”。就好像“番茄炒蛋”,没听过“西红柿炒蛋”,可能跟环境有关吧。

一般在中国,人们习惯叫西红柿,比如去饭馆人们习惯说来个西红柿炒蛋。在中文中番是番邦的意思,是外来品。而且西红柿属于茄科,所以又叫番茄
