Pat ,
Like good wine, good food should have a look, a smell, a taste, a
texture, and sometimes, an effect. (I'm thinking chiles but there are
probably others.) How was the Anna Russian tomato? I'm asking you
because retailers always praise their own merchandise.


'Anna Russian' is excellent--very meaty, very flavorful. This is the red
tomato I'd serve up to impress a guest. One fault is that it is *very*
prone to serious splitting when nearly ripe if you get a big rain.
