Taste of tomatoes

I bet you’ve noticed the abundance of tomatoes lately. They seem to be infiltrating the garden and I seem to be making a lot of tomato recipes lately.

It is really amazing that they all just turn red at once, calling to any person passing by to eat the fruit.

Oh and I do! Oh yes, I pluck one or two! And softly bite into it, which gently pops it. And with the few that I taste I find that every plot has a specific tomato taste, believe it or not.

I notice that Robin and I’s are a little sweeter than others. Some have more of an earthy taste to them than others. And this is specifically among the small cherry type tomatoes.

I haven’t found any information to why this is, but I suspect that it has something to do with soil-the nitrogen maybe. Not a 100% sure. But that is my scientific guess.

So next the time your at the garden, taste a few tomatoes. I won’t mind. It’s all in the name of research.
