Eggplant shaped ? ... Pasta ???
I can only think of ROMA . They are kind of "elongated" but not quite like an eggplant. THEN again, what kind of eggplant are we talking about !!

Debby, there are many eggplant varieties and they come in ALL kinds of shapes so that doesn't help much.

Does pasta type to you mean a paste variety used for sauce? A long red one with perhaps a knob at the blossom end?

If red, there are hundreds of long red ones, but I don't know of any with ruffles at the stem end.

I don't really think anyone will be able to ID it for you even if you show a picture since so many look alike.

Lastly, there are more problems with traded seeds in terms of crossed seeds and wrong varieties than one would ever find at commercial places, which is one reason I don't trade seeds. I used to do a wrong varieties thread here at GW, so I know that to be true. And I read at several message sites and in general it is still true , but does depend on which specific site (s) you do your trading,.

What you are asking is impossible to do even with seeing the tomato and the plant first hand. Much less from a photo or just a vague description.

There are literally hundreds of possibilities.

Just eat and enjoy if they are any good but do not try to apply a name to them and please do not trade any of the seeds. The trading pool is already far too contaminated with wrongly labeled seeds.
