I'm not a big Burpee fan either. High prices and sleight of hand variety naming for sure. But lets not say this new one tastes awful until someone has at least grown and eaten it! Two recent Burpee varieties have become garden mainstays for me. BrandyBoy IS what they claimed it to be. Very tasty and a bit more production than the Sudduth I've been growing. And Burpee promised Porterhouse to be huge and they certainly are! Bigger than Big Zac, Delicious, Tidwell's German, NAR and bigger than any of the 'HUGE' varieties I've ever grown and I've grown a lot. So sometimes, yeah, not often, they are right on! I doubt the Tie Dye story just as you all do but lets taste one before we say it's awful...
