Default Tomotoey goodness

I'm making some gazpacho for the 4th. This time, I got all Frenchified
about it and I jes finished peeling and deseeding a batch of romas. I
cut out the thick white core and removed all the seeds, saving only
the meat of the tomato.

I know I don't want the seeds, but seems to me there's a lotta good
eats in that "slime" or pulp the seeds are suspended in. So, I put
the "guts" in a large fine seive and mashed out the juice with a
rubber spatula. Taste great! Not bitter. So, now I have the meat to
toss in the FP and the juice from the guts in a separte bowl. I
should be including this juice, yes? No? Maybe?

Hell, I'm used to jes tossing the whole mess in the blender and
letting it go at that, but I'm trying to be a GOOD cook. What say the
brethren? Include the tomatoey goodness?
