Does anyone know of a good source for ripe tomatoes? I'm willing to pay
an exhorbitant price, and live in the NE.

Grow 'em or get 'em from a neighbor who does. All commercial tomatoes are
the pits because if they're tough enough to ship all the flavor is gone.

Many stupidmarkets offer 'on the vine' ripened tomatoes-for a premium price.
But even these pale next to home grown. Assuming 'the NE' is the northern
New England states rather than the generic NorthEast, that is probably your
best bet at this time of year.

Have you seen those Ugly tomatoes in your supermarket. I like them
a lot, even this time of the year.

Not ugly tomatoes. Ugly tomatoes with a capital U. It's a brand
name. They are large nice red tomatoes. Very nice for a supermarket
tomato. Especially good on a nice sandwich.

Sorry I missed the Cap., although I did think you were explaining something
other than unattractive. How nice to have access to a large, decent tasting
tomato during the winter. I don't recall ever having heard of the Ugly
tomato before. Out here in the West we do have access to the grape tomatoes
and those tomatoes that are sold still attached to the vine. The variety
that I get at Costco is called Campari. The vines are always very fresh and
smell strongly of tomato vine. The tomatoes are sweet--quite a bit sweeter
than the usual garden variety, but taste very much like freshly picked
tomato.

They are the closest to fresh garden tomatoes that you
can find in a supermarket. Nice? They're wonderful!
But in our area, the season is quite short, only a
couple of weeks. They are called Ugly because they are
ribbed quite heavily on the outside (think acorn squash
only moreso.) They have few, tiny seed cavities and are
very flavorful.

(laughing) Here's the deal. In the past I have a couple of times
said that I have noticed that the supermarket tomatoes, even in the
winter, have been getting better than the whitish cardboardy things
we're all so used to. That was met with disdain or deafening
silence. I happen to think the Ugly's (Ugli's?) are very good
indeed.

Maybe it's just because of where I live, but the store down the street has
some really nice, juicy looking tomatoes sitting by the front window.
Ripley, TN is known for tomatoes but I thought it was too early for them to
look that nice.

I think they call those 'heirlooms'. No doubt about it, they are
delicious - they damn well should be for four bucks a pound!

I like grape tomatoes - they're sweet and flavorful, unlike the cardboard
tomatoes we've grown used to in recent years. If I didn't live in the
city, I'd grow my own. Alas, a window herb garden is about all I can
handle.

Check out the site Steve W mentioned? It doesn't say anything about
regional or season, but at least it describes them. Gloria said that
the season is quite short. I would go out of my way to get one this
time of the year, myself. The site says it's a misshapen beefsteak.
I can go along with that.

There's a greenhouse in VT that grows them hydroponically. Google for

to find them.

Let me explain. I do grow tomatoes. They are usually quite good, though
the season is short. Trouble is, they aren't ripe now. My Mom has
terminal cancer, and has a craving for tomatoes. I thought that maybe
somewhere (I don't know, Hawaii? Austrailia?) there would be a grove
that might have heirloom tomatoes that could be FedExed.

At this time of year the only fresh tomatoes I eat come from an
organic farm in Yaphank, NY that grows excellent cherry tomatoes
indoors.
They come to the Union Sq. Greenmarket three times a week. They are
extravagant enough.

I wait till they are ripening in the ground for larger ones. Just how
well they come out depends on the season, and the particular location.

Holy crow, if they are still in the stores, maybe I could send you
some Ugly's in a cooler? I can't promise!

Would Roma do? I can send you some from here by overnight mail, no
charge.

I know exactly where you are coming from! I spoiled my mom too as much
as I could while she was dying.

I can check at the store tomorrow and see if they have the cluster
tomatos.

Overnight express mail wrapped well in Newspaper ought to work also
since the weather is cold...

I just made the same offer, but I'll bet what you have would taste
better! I'm not sure if cluster tomatos are in the store right now, but
will check tomorrow.
