Kind of tomato on a whopper - Page 4

Have to admit, I do appreciate a warped sense of humor. (Especially in the dead of winter)

I'm just jealous. And the gases from those tasteless Whopper tomatoes have destroyed my brain cells.

So, this got my curiosity going and I found myself eating a whopper today just so I could extract the seeds and grow them. Yes, I am aware it is 99% likely to be a hybrid, and one developed for all the wrong reasons, like shipping ability over flavor. The only issue I see is the seeds were not well developed, no doubt due to its being picked immature (green), shipped and gassed. But still I just got to try it for the fun of it.

Here is the type of slicer that was used many MANY years ago when I was working at Burger King. It was so long ago, I believe he was just Burger Prince.
