Depends if they are seasonal. If they are they are, they are delicious and if they are homegrown they are even better;)

I find most shop bought taste of water, whilst the homegrown versions have a distinct tang to them.British tomatoes are tasteless compared to those that grow in Spain/Portugal/Italy/Greece.
Mrs Ewing doesn't eat a tomato, my bro-i-law doesn't but he grows 'em and I get 'em.
Growing a few outside this year. Plenty on but no sign of red, which I suppose can be seen as a good thing!

Not if you grow your own mate. The force grown ones are gash

I can have them in things but not as a whole like raw in a sandwich.
And his wife was advised to give up pancake when the Sun found out.Stephen Gerrard was advised to give up tomatoes when he was getting numerous hamstring strains.

It can happen as you get older with a number of things mate, often it’s the fact your body chemistry and hormones change slightly, I’m the same with eggs unless they’re boiled although I just throw them up, and coffee bloats me to fuck, 2 things I’ve eaten or drank in abundance all my life.Love them but increasingly they are going straight through me which isn’t pleasant at all.
No idea why but I fear I’m suddenly becoming intolerant to them.
I remember over 20 years ago first eating a beef tomato in Greece, it was like eating steak it was that tasty, incredible.British tomatoes are tasteless compared to those that grow in Spain/Portugal/Italy/Greece.
