Plenty of supermarkets near farms or in urban cores have fresh heirloom tomatoes that put generic backyard ones to shame. Eating well doesn’t require continuous effort. Invest time in learning to source well. After that, it’s higher quality for the same amount of effort. (Of course if you’re willing to expend the effort, fresh tomatoes grown from good seed can’t be beaten.)
