Oh, I'm certain that tomatoes you grow at home are super good, often better than store bought. What I'm saying is that store bought tomatoes are much better than they used to be, and are usually plenty good enough.
Home grown have also grown tastier in the same time frame. That’s a totally irrelevant point, but I guess justify shitty tomatoes however you want.
They’re still always picked unripe, and ripening on the plant is how they get tastier. That’s not gonna change from a variety change.
I agree. Some stores here sell heirloom tomatoes (the ones there are often funny-shaped and not just red) and they're much better than the perfectly round mealy, red ones. They're also much more expensive (often comparable to farmers markets here) but they're available. True, they're not as good as farmers market or homegrown, but they're leagues better than the "regular tomatoes"
