Here is s sample of the amount of tomatoes that are on my Grape Tomato plant. They're is litterally hundreds on here. We have eaten a few already and they are turning red daily. This shot is just one small branch end. Further up the same branch are maybe 5 more clusters such as this. The plant is nearly 6 feet tall so there are plenty to eat soon. How many grape tomatoes do you guess your plant is producing? Do you prefer small grape tomatoes for your salds? Or do you prefer larger tomatoes cut into wedges for a salad?

We don't have any grape tomatoes growing, but we have 6 big tomato plants growing. I was out earlier before it rained and looked. There are at least 30 tomatoes on there right now. They are all still green, but they are growing.
I don't eat tomatoes, but my daughter loves them all. I will sometimes get her the grape ones, but for the most part she gets big ones cut into chunks.

I have never heard of grape tomatoes either, I have heard of cherry tomatoes and I like them as they are really small and sweet.

Grape tomatoes are a little bigger than cheery tomatoes.
Some are sweeter then cherries as well. Very juicy too.

Our Romas were always the last to ripen last year.
Make salsa maybe?

Up until a little over a year ago I had never heard of grape tomatoes. I have always heard of the regular every day tomatoes and cherry tomatoes but never grape. I finally got some after I was told about them and they are very good. I don't have a preference what kind of tomato goes in my salad.

Grape tomatoes are called that because they grow in a cluster like grapes do. They are a bit smaller usually than cherry tomatoes but just as tasty actually.

hi Grandpa Bob I love grape tomatoes, and had some for
my lunch in my shrimp scampi with pasta, it was so good
and I just add tomatoes to about everything. they are'
my favorite veggies and so healthy for me too. I also
love them in my red leaf lettuce salad along with some
cucumber and a good mayo. I leave the big tomatoes for
slicing and making a tomato sandwich. love them. yummy

Seafood! YUCK! I am not a fan of seafood. I don't even care much for any type of fish. But I love tomatoes. They are actually a fruit but most think of them as a veggie. Hee hee.

I don't slice them at all.
I just wash it and start eating it from my hands with salt.
