We have discovered that our Golden Girl and Brandywine tomatoes are our favorites. We bought both plants from Jung. The Golden Girl produced very early and produced a lot of tomatoes (until it got the blight which will reduce it's yield, but that's another story). The Brandywine produces fewer tomatoes, but they are huge and amazingly delicious. We refuse to cook these because when they're cooked you don't taste that delicious sweet flavor that you notice when they're eaten raw. Next year we're definitely planting more of each and fewer paste tomatoes since we can just buy a big bulk box of paste tomatoes for canning from the farmers market. We saw a 25# box for $20 this past Saturday. This picture isn't actually one of our tomatoes, but ours look quite similar.
