I was telling the writer of the fictitious tomato blurb to "shut up" and hitting them with a tomato. Your ideas were excellent! I should have stated that, my point was that it is not only less work just ranking the tomato on whatever criteria you want but would possibly prove to be lees contentious. It can be very difficult to get people to agree on things that seem simple such as: correct tomato shape and size and heirloom or not heirloom...even color. I was trying to say that we could head all that off by just listing the name only and letting people vote on whatever factor they personally felt made for a great tomato. I'm all about flavor because I grow 75 plants just for eating (some canning and cooking) A person that loves to can and cook and has limited space will sacrifice some flavor for yield and others have diseases and climate issues for making their decision. If we had enough voters all that would even itself out and the best tomatoes would rise to the top. |
