I don't know if she made it up or not-- but the flavor range of even
home grown tomatoes goes from nothing to heavenly. Temperature,
water supply, nutrients and variety all play a role.

I grow several varieties every year and depending on mother nature one
or another of those varieties will be the best and worst.
