Store tomatoes here taste like cardboard. Home grown ones are so flavourful I can eat them like an apple.People who've never tasted a good fresh locally grown tomato have no frame of reference. I grew up in Jersey, adjacent to a farm that grew Jersey corn and tomatoes, among other things. We used to eat those like apples. I remember my buddy carrying around a single shaker with a salt and pepper mix inside just for the occasion.
It's amazing how mass distribution has managed to drain the tomato flavor from tomatoes, and how people generally don't know the difference.
