thrawnWhat petty hill will you die on?
madkarlssonI loathe tomatoes on burgers and will throw it in your face if you serve it to me.
Absolutely pointless taste wise and all that water is what makes the bread and patty move around with no respect for each other.
Ooooh them's fighting words. Have you tried a burger with a homegrown tomato? Pretty night and day, might just change your mind.

That’s the ugliest tomato I’ve ever seen on a burger!
Hah! You must broaden your horizons beyond a basic red tomato.
Tomato, Berkeley Tie-Dye Green
75-80 days. Incredibly colorful and delicious large-fruited slicing variety! Fruit runs 8 to 16 ounces. Exterior color is green with stripes in red and yellow. But the flesh is truly tri-color! Creamy green flesh infused with various shades of red and yellow. Each of these colors has a different flavor resulting in a spicy, sweet, tart tomato with good acid all in one fruit. Discovered in a planting of Beauty King. Fair to good production. A truly incredible new open-pollinated variety, and a new favorite of many chefs. Full Sun Sprouts in 7-14 Days Ideal Temperature: 75-95 Degrees F Seed Depth: 1/8 inch Plant Spacing: 24" Frost Hardy: No Solanum lycopersicum Growing Tips: Start indoors 6-10 weeks before last frost. Heat mat helps to warm soil and speed germination.
ChrisFheyThat looks really weird. Not knowing about it, I'd assume the tomato isn't ripe yet in that state.
But I assume it's perfectly ripened and delicious?

Yes, there are all sorts of tomatoes, coming in various shapes, sizes, and colors. They all have different tastes too, although it is going to taste like a tomato to some degree.
I'm going to look around for something like this where I live. I've only ever come into contact with the "normal" tomatoes, but I'm intrigued.
snooggumsIn addition to color variety, different tomatoes have different textures. A farmer's market is more likely to have a grower who knows the difference than a grocery store with a small heirloom basket where the staff just pit out what they have.
Like some are more firm, or have more juice, and with a lot of variety like apples.
