re: Difference between regular and Creole Tomatoes?

Tomatoes grown in St Bernard and Plaquemines taste good because they are able to keep them on the vine longer since they have a very short distance to transport which always makes for a better tasting tomato. Regardless if it is a creole or a celebrity or whatever else. Just like a tomato of whatever variety grown in your own backyard is better because you pick it just when it is ready and ripe.

I like the so called creole for the size. I grow the celebrity too but I grow probably ten different varieties yearly anyway. My Cherokee purple have been my best the last three years.
