One could just eat other fruits, is there some reason the tomato, other than marketing "antioxidants", need be the purple fruit one eats?

Maybe it's a different question. Does the flavour seem mostly the same? A drop in for recipes?

Grapes are for luddites! Seriously though, my grapes are so reliable at cropping compared to tomato plants I think it would be more interesting to engineer grapes to be tomato-like.

The reason I bought it was simply "that's neat". I'm not doing it for health reasons.

Mine aren't mature yet, but the flavor is apparently just a pretty typical cherry tomato.
