Blue tomatoes: I was totally wrong

Fred Hempel · August 1, 2015

There are instances of my skepticism in Tomatoville threads regarding Blue (anthocyanin) tomatoes.

Well, I was completely wrong.

I had a very blue (and red fleshed) tomato at the farmers' market today, and it was truly exceptional. There was also no weird aftertaste. Clearly the blue can be completely separated from any weird flavors that have been in some of the blue tomato lines.

So, please disregard my previous statements about blue tomatoes. I stand corrected by whoever bred the blue tomatoes I ate at the market today.
