The Heirloom aka “ugly” tomato

The qualities that make normal tomatoes last longer (shelf life) also reduce sugar and other aspects - making them bland. The true heirloom tomato, not bred commercial for shelf life, doesn’t suffer from that.

My ex neighbour used to bring me so called meaty tomatoes He called them marie antoinette's if I recall correctly

Those are fantastic tomatoes! I had a coworker who used to grow them and bring them in. Best tomato I've had!

No great story started with a Salad!!

They are beautiful tomatoes!
And so freaking tasty!

True. They’re delicious when eaten raw.
