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.

@DownTheStreetthere's no one heirloom. Heirloom isn't a single variety. It is just any stable genetics variety as oppposed to an F1 hybrid.
