Im doing a paper, and this was a lot of help. I have to do a plant sale, and I'm trying to get people to buy it and to get an A+ on it. I'm also growing it, so I probably need more information to make it healthy. Hey, this isn’t half bad. Im doing a paper, and this was a lot of help.

Mmm. Cake. Just sayin'. Your pal, Cookie. If it’s a really sweet and small, maybe it would be nice served beside a nice fall cake, like a garnish. Mmm. Cake.

What I hope to find one day is the best of the best. The ones I don't choose are not bad, just not the best. I have a rather small garden and if I found 6 tomatoes every year that I absolutly loved, I would never be able to try anything new. I try to find 1 - 2 each year that I love. The rest are okay. Just not the best. I do plant one of each, I just don't have the room for any more than that if I want to try all these varieties. I look for tomatoes that suit my taste, which are tangy, smokey tomatoes with good flavor in both the meat and gel. I always say that tomatoes are like wine. Everybody likes something a little different. And as Patrick mentioned, sometimes the climate can make a vast difference in how a tomato tastes. Patrick - I think you are right. Yours looks a lot more pale than mine. I am beginning to wonder if the wrong seeds were in the package. It has happened to me before (not from them, though). Simon - Thanks for dropping me a comment.

Don't seem to be a lot of keepers. But then, you're obviously become very discriminating. I need to search through to see your methodology. How did you pick? How did you plant?

That's very strange, I didn't think it was very sweet. Mostly I thought it was a bit bland. I also got my seeds from Baker Creek. I guess it just comes down to climate...
