Message: [QUOTE="cravingflavor, post: 27438, member: 1194"] It seems like (though probably not so) that I am pretty much alone in my taste for tomatoes. What I really want from a tomato has eluded me for a long time and I'm wondering if anyone has some ideas. I love acidic beefsteak tomatoes; the kind my grandfather grew in his backyard in Kansas City, Mo. and on his farm outside of Olathe Kansas. Every year I ask the local plant vendors if anyone knows of someone growing any variety of acidic tomatoes. Blank stare and shake of head. If I could find any truly acidic flavored tomato, beefsteak or no, I'd gladly take them. My grandfather also grew Golden Jubilee corn. Don't see it in the market or seed racks around here either. I live in Olympia, Wa. Any other lovers of these types of vegetables out there? Or any tips on where to find some seed varieties/starter plants of them? [/QUOTE]
