I didn't see any twins this year, but I quite often see a second 
undeveloped fruit inside bells.

When I started tomatoes in the greenhouse this year the first 
blossoms had more pistils and stamens than I'd seen before and 
these fruits developed multiple nodes. Once the tomatoes were set 
out the blossoms looked normal and and the fruits were single.

I have no idea what causes this, but it happens with quite a few 
plants. Not sure it's a trait I'd want to breed for:-)
