What, exactly, are 'Vine' tomatoes?


A marketing gimmick.


Do they taste any different to 'ordinary' tomatoes?


No!


Are they just a scam so that the growers don't have to
bother picking each one, just cut the whole bunch off
the plant, making them cheaper to grow, but charging
the silly cutomer more?


Yes!
