Tomatoes, like these come in several sizes, but they are basically all the same, so we have lumped them all together. See more about them below.
About Tomatoes:
There are many varieties of “round” tomatoes such are the ones pictured here. Since they are generally all sold as “tomatoes”, we have grouped them together. The best tasting tomatoes are those that are vine ripened. Most commercial tomatoes sold in the markets are picked just at the point when they are beginning to turn red, and then they are ripened in transit being subjected to ethylene gas just prior to delivery – as a result they never have a chance to gain their full natural flavor. Select tomatoes that are firm and free of bruises and wrinkles. See nutritional chart below for in-season and out of season tomatoes.
