From doing a bit of reading it seems to me that mouth ulcers, aka canker sores, are the result of allergic reactions, thus a reaction on the part of the individual person having nothing to do with any specific tomato variety/color/protein.

Darrel has also said that he can't tell the difference between the colors orange and gold, ahem, so maybe he was referring to Aunt Gertie's Gold.

And there are plenty of other foods, as noted in the following Google search, that can elicit mouth ulcers.
