Will they manage to make mass produced tomatoes when worse than they are now? Seriously they're so bad, they're not even worth purchasing in my opinion.

I bet you live in the US. What you describe is not a universal issue.

No, I'm from Belgium and we get awful tasteless tomatoes from the Netherlands.

Dutch products in general are low quality. So glad I got out.

Most of the issues are from lack of ripeness at plucking.

If you wait till they are about to spoil on the vine, even the one's you really don't like will have taste
