All 3 of these came from mini bell peppers i got from costco in like february? I ate them and then took the seeds out to grow in a box, they were the only things growing in the box though? My tomatoes i started directly in their containers so its impossible i mixed them? ( tomatoes are whats growing all around them is why i said that )
Does anyone know what kind of peppers these could even be or like what they are at all could they be tomatoes somehow? Ill keep growing them of course, im just a bit confused.

Adding the plants also looked very different as babies but have slowly become more similar in appearance to my tomatoes?
Mango?
I’m 99% sure those are tomatoes, the flowers, stems, the leaves, the fruit, they all point to tomato.
Tomatoes
A tomato.
Looks like the more green ombre one may be called a ‘ caramel cardinal pepper ‘ ? Does that seem right? They look very very similar?
Another Redditor tried the same thing you did and planted the seeds from store-bought mini peppers. Here’s what that plant ended up looking like:

Pepper leaves look much different from tomato leaves. And they’re glossy. Are you sure you ever had peppers growing?
Chile plants are not fuzzy like this, tomatoes are fuzzy like this. The leaves are also completely wrong.
I find tomatoes grow really well when unplanned but die horribly when I plant them.
Tomato.
The pointy tomatoes look like romas or Amish paste The yellow round one could turn out to be a few types: yellow, peach, or great white.
A lady around here sells these beautiful, delicious, black tomatoes. Spectacular. I’ve bought dozens only to die.
I just did a quick search – tomato and pepper are close enough together that they can cross pollinate.
I believe that when this happens you get a mix in the seeds – some will be tomato, some will be pepper.
All the veggies in your pics are tomatoes but it is technically possible that they grew from seeds from a pepper If the farm that produced the pepper grew both close together.
Ox heart tomatoes
Ganja?
Fried green tomatoes
Tell me if this is wrong, but if it’s a seed from a hybrid fruit they won’t grow normally. So a seed from a store bought tomato would most likely not make good fruit. If this is bs please call me out
Looks like tomatoes to me.
It’s all in the stem and hair
Appears to be Roma Tomato

Roma tomatoes.
Image 1 is a tomato!
It looks like it might have been crossppollinated. That pinched out bottom is often, though not always, a sign of this.
Image 2 and 3 are tomatoes also, and look fine.
Image 3 has the look of a salad tomato, but its impossible to tell what variety.
Those are tomatoes. They just look like plum or paste tomatoes
