(+) Yeah! (+)

I've never really noticed a difference between the different brands, as long as you get the same thickness. Angel hair is the best.

I didn't even know I liked tomatoes raw until I had some proper tomatoes.

What is the difference? Like I'll actually gag if I try to eat raw tomatoes unless they're made into something like sauce.

All pasta is just noodles in tomato water with cheese.

It turns out typical American ingredients are just low quality. I didn't even know I liked tomatoes raw until I had some proper tomatoes.

No

The tomatoes I was used to tasted like dirty, slightly acidic water. These bad boys are savory, almost soupy-meaty, and have a kind of spice profile to them. Complete night and day.

You can get good tomatoes from a farmer's market, too. Grocery store produce is just garbage. I bought bagged spinach at a store once, it was bad in like 3 days. Bought some at a farmer's market, it lasted weeks.

Also...I thought it sounded weird, but some one mentioned putting a dash of salt on a tomato slice (like on a burger). It makes the tomato taste so much fucking better. I'm guessing the salt cuts the acidity?

Saltes fruits are pretty good. Put a little on watermelon, see how you like that

The best pasta for catching sauce or making mac and cheese is radiatori. Too bad it's really hard to find now that Walmart discontinued the Great Value one.

Were also used to having fresh tomatoes year-round instead of only when theyre in season. The tomatoes I get from the farmers market have more in common with the ones you describe but theyre only available during early winter and late spring.

I kinda don't like the texture of them.
And any good pasta can catch flavor.

I didn't say flavor. The sauce/cheese gets caught in it.

Where about's are you?

Florida. Our growing seasons are odd.
