Five million pounds of tomatoes are eaten every year in
America. They are versatile for cooking and are a good source
of Vitamin C. To pick a good tomato look closely at the
skin color and the overall weight. Tomatoes should have
a consistent color and feel heavier than they look. When
you take them home it is best to keep them out of the refrigerator.
Cold temperature will result in weight loss and lack of
firmness, both of which will affect the taste.
