There is already a tomato thread going but it's broadly focused. On this
thread I'm asking what's your single favorite tomato variety. My candidate
is the Sun Gold Cherry, incredibly sweet and a terrific producer.

I love Pineapple. Red and yellow bi-color. Big for slicing, sweet and
not too acidic.

If I could only plant one variety it would be Cherokee Purple. Excellent
flavor & good producer.

If my only uses for tomatoes were for sandwiches and salads I would
agree. But my main uses are for sauces which I can and I can't quite
see Cherokee Purple for that.

For me it would be the "Bonny Best". Good all purpose medium size round
tomato: for fresh eating, canning and making sauce. Not perfect for each
category, but can work in every category for tomato uses.
