OK, let's settle this!
Which tastes better, a red tomato or a pink tomato?

Simple. Cuostralee is the best tasting tomato around. Cuostralee is red. Therefore, a red tomato is better!

Just to make sure that is not just one person's opinion... Do you have documentation to back that up?

http://www.amazon.com/Smith-Hawken-H...merican+garden http://tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/Cuostralee http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/87637/ All three of these sites clearly list Cuostralee as a red tomato!

That documentation question was a little inside joke from another thread. Red is red and as you say Coustralee is red, even to my poor eyes. However, that buisness about it being the best tasting tomato around? That's blarney! ( or is it malarkey?) Everyone knows KBX is the best tasting tomato around. So orange is better! (or is it yellow?.......)

I second this suggestion. I grow tomatoes for size competition and Delicious holds the record for the worlds heaviest tomato at 7.76 LBS. They taste fantastic as well. I also grow Big Zac which is also known for it's ability to grow monsters. They taste great!!
