    Well then ur neighbors are so lucky because those look really good. I imagine they taste far better than any you can find at the store

      Oh they certainly do, once you’ve had homegrown, store bought will forever taste bland. And there’s such crazy variety, some are intensely sweet, others tart or savory.

        Is there any variety you recommend for its taste in case I ever decide to grow my own tomatoes? I’d never seen as many different ones as in your picture lol. I’ll eat tomato mostly in salads. Also, I live in Southern Europe so our weather should be pretty similar to SoCal.
