I'm no botanist, but it definitely looks more like an egg plant than a tomato. I'd say it's some sort of heirloom egg plant. I'd love to see a picture when it's ready. Maybe we could trade seeds?

Lisa it sure looks like an egg plant, the fruit is starting to turn orange on one of the five plants. Sure we could trade seeds. Do you know when it is ready to pick? I have never had an egg plant like this one, how big does it get?    Ellen from Georgia

Hi Ellen, When I first saw it, I thought it might be Turkish Orange Egg Plant, now that you say it's turning orange, I bet it is. Here's a pic of them I stole online Lol!

I also found this one of a green one

I'll bet that's what it is.
