I had a weak moment at Costco last week. I bought a tray of some really pretty little tomatoes, all still in a bunch. They actually had a fair taste, but the texture was, how shall we say it, "cardboard-ish"? We've got a few left that we're letting sit in there to ripen(?) more. But, uh, yeah...these winter tomatoes create an altogether "different experience".
Btw, I took a couple of the Costco tomatoes to my gardening buddy last Friday when I went to watch the college football playoffs with him. I've tried to contact him since....voice, texts, but nada. I think he tasted one of the tomatoes and isn't speaking to me right now.
