"baby heirlooms"
 
Anyone see these in the grocery store? They are from Melissa's. Quite a mix of "baby heirlooms" - yellow, orange, pink, red, kinda stripped red and I didn't think they looked too great. $4.99. Another store today had a different brand, same price. Not heirloom cherry tomatoes but baby. :roll: piegirl

Never seen personally but often visiting her website and wonder how expensive everything in USA. She use many 'baby" before vegetable name, cek it here [url]http://www.melissas.com/Products/Categories/Vegetables.aspx[/url].

Maybe its they way to call it small.

I saw some (different brand) at the store yesterday, they were on "sale" for $3.99 :roll: so I bought a pack. They tasted like normal store bought tomatoes BUT, my 3 yo ate TONS of them because he liked all the different colors! So, he's gonna love my garden this year - Black Cherry, Sungold F1, Green Doctor's Frosted, Matt's Wild Cherry, Sarah's Galapagos, Coyote, Snow White, Yellow Submarine..... think that covers the "baby" tomatoes, lol!!!

WOW! Two packages for $25.20-maybe they're gold filled!

[quote]Yep, they seem to like the word "baby" alot.[/quote]They sure do, and I find it very irritating. To me, a baby tomato is a small green unripe, far from full size, unedible tomato. I don't consider cherry or grape tomatoes to be babies.

All this eating of "baby" vegetables sounds so gimmicky. /puke
And even a little mean. :cry:
