Well, I like the Heirlooms, because I can save the seeds, and get the same tomato again and again. But we sometime plant hybrids too. Grocery store tomatoes lack the flavor of homegrown, so I don’t buy them any more unless I’m totally out of homegrown and dying for a tomato.
That is so true that the former would seem to be a different species if the color and shape were different. Thank God for the real thing.
