Default Opalkas Rule!

Yes, it is my first year with Opalka, but I still can't say enough good things about it. We make a lot of sauce every year, and Viva Italia has been my paste/sauce tomato of choice until now. First of all, I was surprised at how large they are. I have many over a pound, and they are VERY heavy for their size, and prolific. Lots and lots of huge pepper shaped tomatoes. They are almost all meat, with few seeds and gel. Viva Italia is a meaty tomato, but much smaller, roma size.

The kicker, however, is the taste! Every bit as good as any heirlooms I'm raising. Makes absolutely outstanding pasta sauce.
