Their colour is so misleading, because red food should be like really tangy and strong. Either sweet like a strawberry or cranberry, or savoury like ketchup. Tomatoes taste like they should be a pale green or yellow, but they're red. It's fucked up.

When I saw the pic on the Wikipedia page - I suddenly remembered by mom used to make tomato sandwiches for me very much like those. It wasn't very often and I had entirely forgotten. The last time I had one was when I was a teenager which was a million years ago.

I'm super lazy and I get my groceries delivered and the tomatoes are utter shit. Maybe I'll make my first trip to Trader Joe's this year and get some beefsteak tomatoes or heirlooms and make some sandwiches. But don't quote me. I am super lazy. Still - mom food.
