I removed big green worms from my tomato plants. Should I cut off the parts he ate from or let it be? Please advise.

Sounds like you might have a tomato horn worm. Here's a link with some helpful info, organicgardensite.com/
Definately sounds like the evil tomato horn worm. They are dangerous to your tomato plants because they eat the plant, but they are not a danger to you. I've always planted marigolds around my tomato plants and that seems to deter them. In 20 years of growing tomatoes, I've only ever had 3 worms that made it past the marigolds.
