Thanks, Mudman! All of these tomatoes are perfectly ugly... It might take me a minute to decide which is the ugliest.

Some of these are just plain scary. I'd be afraid to sleep at night if they were left on the kitchen counter!

Some ugly mothers in that there selection. I picked 9 the others are ugly but that thing just is bad. Most are somewhat edible that thing I would quickly throw into my neighbors yard and move on.

Good show people.

The only way you'd get me to touch it would be with rubber gloves and a stick.

I picked 3 because it looks to me like an inflamed bloody colon with hemorrhoids and cancer. I almost picked 7 because of the "lips" that remind me of some of the more unfortunate dating choices I made in my youth...choices made with the help of copious quantities of very strong alcohol! I agree with everyone that 9 is gross. But nearly any tomato would be ugly sliced open and allowed to rot. It takes real skill to produce some of the other mutants in the contest!

Nice job Mudman. Mick Jagger's lips for the win. 6 reminds me of the movie Alien.
I wouldn't bring any one of them inside, even for pictures!

The only reason I didn't vote for 9 is because it didn't look like it grew that way naturally.

I like 4 because it reminds me of my home ec teacher who I despised. Old Biddy!

You just took this to a level we should not have ventured too.

I like it.
