What do you think?
Most tomatoes show this level of anthocyanin production, quite independent of potential contamination from Indigo Rose genetics.

Even if this contamination effect did happen, it would only be an issue in plants you grew from seed collected from a plant which was cross-pollinated with Indigo Rose. A plant simply growing near Indigo Rose will have no impact on the fruit produced.
