I also loved the PINK BTD have grown them twice.
My Pork Chops were sort of blah, but super super juicy. May try one again in a sunnier place, someday... |

Michael Pollan produced a lot of tomatoes for me but unfortunately the taste was just okay. Ended up using it as a "filler" in chopped dishes like salsa. I liked Pink BTD and will probably grow it again this year just to refresh my memory as I grew it 2 yrs ago.

The first WBF variety I grew was Sweet Carneros Pink. In the photo on the WBF website, it is a beautiful tomato. It grew in my garden as a beautiful tomato. While very beautiful, I thought the taste was on the bland side. I feel people who prefer sweet varieties may have a different opinion. Were my taste buds not adjusted properly for the flavor SCP has?

Ted, I grew it too! It was one of the most beautiful anfd productive plants that year but it was a s sour as a lemon. Yuck.
I do love some other Brad's creations, though: Porkchop, Haley's Purple Comet, AAA Sweet Solano from the top of my head... |
