The store varieties are absolutely bred for yield and looks but not taste. The most common tomato is called "bulletproof" and that's because of how well it ships without bruising, not how tasty it is.
I don't know if the difference is because of different species of plants or different light conditions or different soil. Whether it's better for your health I couldn't say.
