The cut tomatoes that are shown are not fully ripe tomatoes. My
home-picked tomatoes sit on the counter for many days and I have never
seen damage or rot spots as shown. To me it means poor handling
somewhere along the line or unclean handling. I can't address
tomatoes from a farm stand or such since I have never purchased any. I
also have never purchased tomatoes from a supermarket. I either have
tomatoes from my garden or in winter the Campari from Costco. My
experience with those does not tally with the article conclusions.
