- GORGEOUS! DELICIOUS! This tomato is a MUST grow. Uniquely marbled pink and yellow flesh, with a starburst pattern on the blossom end. 8 oz to 1 lb each. Absolutely no acid taste at all, nothing but a sweet fruity flavor. As my grandmother said, "it ain't got no after taste like." I couldn't have said it better myself! This one is now my FAVORITE tomato.
