Just my opinion but I think it's impossible to make an ID of a fruit shown in a picture.

Once a variety is seperated from it's label there's no way to know for sure what it is.

Looks like it came from San Fransisco around 1966.

BTD or Green Copia

This is what was standing on the label; chocolate striped.A lot of you thought it was BTD,i was growing BTD and chocolate striped at the same time and i cannot see any difference between those two.So my question is does chocolate striped excist or is it an other name for the same tomato?

Yes, Chocolate Striped, listed in the SSE Yearbook as Chocolate Stripes by the originator, exists and was a cross made by an SSE member between Schimmeig Creg and a "pink".He describes it as having brown, yellow and green coloring and about 10-14 oz.

Another person says the base color is mahogany.

Another person says round brown fruit, dark chocolate to green stripes.

Perhaps different descriptions are given b'c possibly it wasn't completely genetically stabilized? I don't know.
