re: #480 The Ghost of a Flea

You’ll find that home grown tomatoes - regardless of what variety you end up with - will consistently taste better than the store bought stuff. Sweeter, jucier, and tastier.

There are a few exceptions - Uglyripes for example are quite good (and expensive), some heirlooms that stores are now carrying, and some hothouse tomatoes (like those from Israel).

And there’s been an ongoing fight about the tomato standards - which are all based on appearance, not taste.
