Jersey tomatoes barely exist, except in very small batches.

The Jersey tomato farmer was replaced by the industry’s desire for tomatoes that can be shipped without spoiling, a long shelf life - tasteless tomatoes.

Campbell’s stopped using Jersey tomatoes long ago.

But yes they were so good you could eat a slice on an Italian roll, and it was as good as a steak sandwich.

You can get them in a farmer’s market or better yet, grow your own in a home garden.

Jersey Sucks. No tomato will make up for the crappy rest of the state. Dumbasses voting 100% pensions, incredibly high property taxes, .25 cent add ons to mandate our gas is pumped. To top it off we are shipping these dumbasses to southern states so they can vote this crap down there.

Jersey has many farmer’s markets. The one is Princeton was magnificent. So you can get lots of Jersey tomatoes - just not at the supermarket.

Our farmer market tomatoes here in AL are superb as well. But I sure miss decent bread.
