| Flat sour taste. Too many other good tomatoes to bother with this one. |

| IMHO it's not as bad as the other review but it's still just a standard tomato. I'd say the best thing about it is that it's easy to get good germination from saved seed. This is NOT a sweet tomato, eaten out of hand it's almost lemony. It makes good sauces if you add a large, whole carrot. Discard the carrot when it's soft and it will have absobed the acid (taste it and pucker). |
