>more expensive than italy

Related: had some friends down from a northern country and they were as amazed at the taste and cost of the tomatoes, as they were at the fact they came from the country my guests came from.

We figured from growth to packing to transportation to purchase, made the tomatoes 'just right' on the day we got them. Not had anything similar since for taste, including those i bought last night.




I imagine these were Dutch tomatoes—I’ve heard the best ones don’t actually get sold in the Netherlands, as the Dutch consumers don’t care enough to pay a premium. These get exported to the south instead, where the costumers are more discerning.
