"White" Grape Tomatoes from H-E-B???
 

I apologize if has already been discussed, but I haven't been here in a very long time. Here in Texas, we have our beloved H-E-B Grocery Store chain to spoil us with amazing produce. It's where I go to look when my tomato season has ended. I found interesting grape tomatoes that are a creamy, pale yellow in color. I attached a photo. Does this seem vaguely familiar to any variety you all might aware of?

Barry's Crazy Cherry, maybe?

Mine aren't that big, but you're in Texas, and everything is big compared to here.

I will look the next time I go shopping at HEB - which will be soon. They do have a good sized section of cherry tomatoes to choose from. Actually for a grocery store, they have the largest selection of cherry tomatoes that I have seen.

The blossom-ends of Barry's Crazy Cherry are sharply-pointed, rather than rounded.

I mean, it's 98% likely it's a hybrid. Probably quite a new one. I've seen them in commercial mixes only starting last year.

Yes, I would imagine that you're correct about it being a hybrid. Please let me know if you ever find a name for the variety.

You can find them in a variety pack with a 'Kumato' type grape variety and an ordinary red grape type. The label on the package referred to it as "Sweet Trio" and they weren't too shabby for grocery store tomatoes.

I grew this one this past season. Looks almost identical to your picture. [ATTACH]84179[/ATTACH]

[ATTACH]84181[/ATTACH] It's called "Snow White". I got it as a bonus from Tomato Growers Supply...It's a great snacker, and yes, it is a hybrid...

The OP tomato is definitely NOT Snow White. I've grown Snow White for years and is a 3/4" to 1" globe. It is not a Grape Tomato. These look like Medovaya Kaplya except these are more "White"

Agree, not Snow White, which is not a hybrid, and which I, too, have grown for years (from my own saved seed). I would like to know that variety and where seeds may be obtained; it would make a nice addition to my mix, hybrid or not!

Ok, so what is it I grew from that seed packet? Not Snow White? I didn't bother to save seeds, since I thought it was a hybrid. I'm confused....

Perhaps it's Syngenta's "Ivorino"? [url]https://www.sival-innovation.com/en/ivorino/[/url]


Syngenta, a global agribusiness company, does do business in the U.S.

Looks an awful lot like the Chang Li grape tomato I grew this season. We really liked that one.

It does look a lot like that. Is Chang Li a hybrid?
