Picked lots of tomatoes again today.

Most disappointing new to me to try this year tomato varieties are both yellow. One was labeled Yellow Pear but they are too tiny to be yellow pears. Bland and just crack before they are ripe.

The next is one of my Wild Boar Farms varieties. Yellow Gold. Should be named yucky yellow as far as I am concerned. I just hate the taste of those. Golden with blue shoulders when still green and has kinda a citrusy taste when ripe. I don't like the taste at all.

Two new cherry types I tried, Black Cherry and Blue Pearl, both are really really good. Large for cherry tomatoes, swirled and pretty. Best of all taste really great. Much bigger than my old standby sweet millions.
