I have often lamented the lack of variety in produce. I’ve been priveleged enough in the past to have access farmers markets that remedy this. But alas, not now :(. I haven’t had a decent tomato...
I have often lamented the lack of variety in produce. I’ve been priveleged enough in the past to have access farmers markets that remedy this. But alas, not now :(. I haven’t had a decent tomato in like 10 years.

I'm way down the rabbit-hole now (thanks to the post!), I knew there were different types of passion fruit, but I had no idea there were so many
