This is funny because I came on here to post about how happy I was with Gold Medal. It's my first year growing it and I did so because so many people on-line recommended it to me!
This is proof that you can't judge a tomato by what a few people say, you really do have to try it yourself. What is not-so-good to one may be the discovery of a lifetime for someone else. With Gold Medal, I finally found a tomato my son likes! He has always hated them and it took me awhile to get him to try a bite of a Gold Medal. He likes it exactly because it doesn't have the tomato taste.
I'm sorry it wasn't what you were hoping for, but it will for sure be a constant in my garden from now on. This is the fun of tomato growing... with so many varieties and tastes, there truly is a tomato for everyone!
