Well, not this one.
Horse shit. Since when does anyone want bland food. I guess that since the supermarkets have sold hydroponic tasteless shit for the last 25 years, that's what the average consumer now expects, but not necessarily wants, in the supermarkets.
I'm pretty sure that if they sold real tomatoes for a month then went back to the used tampons that pass as tomatoes there would be a problem.
Also, the supermarkets know that people want real tomatoes which is why they jack the price up on those fancy ones that come with the vine still attached. It's basic sales horse shit. Provide something that only the top 5% can afford, knowing you will sell much less, then jack up the margins on the cheap shit. The crap then looks like a real bargain which the 95% buy. Let me assure you, that 100% of car ads show the top model with all the extras, not the basic high profit margin model.
Again, you miss the point. It's not about size (cough), it's about taste (snicker). Like raw milk. I don't drink raw milk for the russian roulette or the health benefits (although there definitely are benefits). I drink it because it tastes like real milk. Not the watered down homogenised permeate soylent green shit that they foist onto the unwashed masses.
The supermarkets sell the mid sized, homogenised tasteless tomato because they are picked unripe to make them impervious to road transport. Real vine ripened tomatoes would not make it to the shops as they are not picked, gently placed in trays and driven straight to your local supermarket. They are trucked in mass to distribution centres, retrucked to state distribution centres then retrucked again to supermarkets, all over a week or so. Their costs are down, profits are up. It tastes like shit but there is money in the bank and the peasants are none the wiser.
