There's a new one coming onto the market called Zebra. I think it must

There was an item on You and Yours (R4) yesterday about the 'Strawmato'
which apparently looks like a strawberry but tastes like a very sweet
tomato. Recommended for eating with chocolate.

The blurb at
http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews/hi/ne...00/4597975.stm
is very odd. Lots of tomatoes can already be "eaten in salads, as a
snack on its own". Is this just an admission that a lot of tomatoes
sold in supermarkets are practically tasteless?

I think I'll pass, myself...

The chocolate sounds a good idea though.
