Yes.
The acid in tomato dissolves the aluminum.
Never cook ANYTHING acidic in aluminum.
I once made the mistake of covering a tomato based dish with aluminum
foil and it ate holes in the foil leaving nasty black bitter spots on
top of my food, and visible holes in the foil.
I had to scrape it all off.
It's a very bad idea to combine tomato and aluminum.
I no longer own any aluminum cookware and I'm a lot more careful now
with foil.
