These tomatoes are way cool. All the seeds are concentrated in an arc just under the skin, so the center is meaty, delicious and almost completely seedless. I have a friend who once illegally took one of these out of Italy so she could dry the seeds and grow them in her yard; she and her brother grow them to this day.

 

I got these plants as seedlings from the local (Italian-owned) garden center. (Boring.)
