Really can you even imagine spending this much to have a tomato? I can't. This was an enjoyable read about a man obsessed with producing the perfect tomato. Now stop and think about this..unless you are willing to spend gobs of money it will not be possible to grow becasue just as Mr Alexander points out...there are so many things to fight and crisis after crisis to produce this round, juicy red morsel of heaven and rich earth. Some people just become obsessed is all i can say. This was a fun read and made me laugh in several places. Sliced carefully, divided into maybe 6 slices from a large tomato... even a huge juicy tomato from the best southern road side stand will never cost you over a few cents a slice...ever. $64.00 makes me wanna really taste this tomato. :)
