Default Margherita Tomato-What a great surprise!

I think someone gave these seeds to me. The plant was never very impressive and when the tomatoes started coming on I was not favorably impressed. They are not what I would call attractive in appearance, but they are touted to be very good for roasting, so I let the plant stay. I picked a few now and then but never tasted them. But yesterday I sliced one into medallions and ate it- WOW !!! it is the best flavored tomato I have had in ages, and the skin is so thin and tender. It is now my favorite this year, along with Big Beef. I can't describe the flavor but it is distinct and wonderful. Perfect size to slice for salads and cucumbers in rice vinegar. The plant is only 2 feet tall, and loaded with tomatoes.
