The problem is that the big wholesalers want a crop that is uniform and
packs and ships well. They care nothing for taste and nothing for
appearance betond uniformity. It's the reason that tomatoes taste like
moist red cardboard, apples are bland with little flavour (but, great
appearance), rtc.
Yes Yes yes Once a tomato hits a coolroom it stops ripening. Threfore no
flavour
