The Arkansas grown tomatoes on the shelves now are among the finest in the world.
But the ones we grow for ourselves have a softer skin{not good for shipping} are about 3lb per $1.00 now. Man they are good this year.

I work at Wendy's in N. Fla and we just started serving our tomatoes again today. I personally prefer them off, I like my burger nice a hot, not wet and cold, but I love them with everything else

Simply cleaning tomatoes is not a reliable way to get rid of the salmonella bacteria, says food safety expert Tom Chestnut of NSF International.
Washing fruits and vegetables is a good way to reduce bacteria on the outside, "but it's very difficult to get a total elimination," he says.

The best ones are kept here only because of damage in shipping.
forgot to mention, The best tasting tomatoes aren't as pretty as the ones you buy at the supermarket
