Default Tomato seeds

This was my week to start my tomatoes, indoors.

One variety I started was brandywine, which I'm pretty certain is not a
hybrid. Since the packet contained very few seeds, I started thinking
that perhaps I could harvest some seeds this year, and save money and have
more plants next year. I know tomato seeds seem to pass through the
digestive tract and survive, but I'd rather find a more pleasant way to
get the seeds.

So what are the steps to harvest tomato seeds, assuming I'm willing to
sacrifice one or two of these fruits.


Simply scoop some seeds from the tomatoes before eating them.
