Interesting concept Brad, as in trying to taste the different colors of something like Berkley Tye Dye.
Do you mean that you'll cut out different portions of the flesh and do it that way? BTW, I've seen that avatar before and isn't it the one you also enjoyed, but off a plate?

KCtomato mentioned the different color flesh from same tomato with different flavor.
I never thought of doing it but will go out on a limb to say that if the color is different so is the taste. Anyone know about salt content in tomatoes. Is it a real salt or another compound that tastes salty? |

brad,
Do you think you will be able to come out to Sacto in August for the tomato tasting? I'd love to talk to you in person about your tomatoes. And thanks for your generous contributions last year. We really enjoyed them.

Keith dearest,
You see that PV has clearly stated the bicolor problem, :wink: , that bedevils some like yourself, but not others of us who have a different perspective. Now standing on the outside and not being a devotee of heirloom tomatoes yourself, which I fully understand, and not being in touch with others who have grown many who see bicolors differently than you do, and not being an SSE member who can see the various sections where different colored varieties are listed, and not understanding that there's an "understanding" amongst most in the heirloom field, and being as we both know that you are sometimes incredibly stubborn about defending your position, ahem, , I can see why you would say what you do. If it makes YOU feel better than go to it. At least this time you didn't attempt to defend your position by throwing out numbers to the assembled group. 8) Your devoted fan when appropriate:
