I mean, who stores tomatoes with the tip down? That is the softer part. Also it's usually less area, so the pressure is higher. Two reasons to get squished much sooner.

Getting tomatoes cold shuts off certain flavor molecules that wont come back after they are warmed back up.
I have tried it and it is what I always read or heard.
I think a lot of this has to do with what type of tomato too.
The better flavored tomatoes wont be effected as much.
A store bought tomato, well there isn't much there anyway.
As for beer or ale some beers taste better around 40 to 50 degrees.
Others like the cheap stuff are intolerable unless they are ice cold.
They are so nasty you have to do everything you can to kill the flavor.
That is why the Bud and Miller drinkers cant wrap their mind around pouring a beer in a glass and letting it rest before drinking.

I once did a test on beer with a thermometer.
People that guzzle beer drink it ice cold and drink cheap horrible beer.
People that drink beer like a normal person drink it at around 45 degrees.
The same goes for people eating.
There are people that suck food down and dont even take the time to taste it.
These are the people you dont waste your time on trying to get them to taste the different flavors herbs and spices you took so much time to prepare.
These are the same people you give the cold store bought tomatoes to and keep the good ones for yourself and others that appreciate them.
