I live in Canada...and I like grape tomatoes very much. The are slightly
sweeter in taste and take well to uses where excessive leakage isn't a good
thing. Like in a salad that's gotta sit a while. But IMO their best
feature, when cooked, is the way they burst into your mouth with flavour
when bitten into. Normally veggies don't get me so excited.
