| I will admit that the taste of this tomato isn't going to wow anyone, but it has no pest or disease problems in my garden. It's one of the easiest tomatoes to slice or chop. It holds its shape beautifully, and there are few seeds. It's great for recipes that call for diced raw tomatoes. |

| The best thing about this variety is that insects seem to love it! Growing this as a sacrificial plant keeps the bugs away from all my good tomato plants. |

| May be the worst tomato for flavor and uselessness I have ever had. I bought into the hype as I love to make salsa and this completely missed. It is super dry, super flavorless. Fair yields and few seeds are quality points but every roma out there makes a better salsa tomato than this one. |
