Why do store purchased tomatoes taste like shit
Answer me that
Hugz & xXx
@Melissabeartrix Customers tend to buy nice, shiny, perfectly formed tomatoes & shy away from any that aren't perfect
So supermarkets source perfectly shaped, red tomatoes as they know they can sell them
The taste isn't a consideration
@Melissabeartrix @staringatclouds it’s worse. they source perfectly shaped GREEN tomatoes and then gas them with ethylene before they go on sale.
@Unixbigot @Melissabeartrix @staringatclouds really?
Grabs a fresh Spanish tomato and snacc's it
@kkarhan @Unixbigot @Melissabeartrix @staringatclouds bananas, tomatoes, avocados, many berries, most stonefruit.
