Seeing bears on the road? Just looked up: unripe tomatoes, they seem to
be poisonous.
Maybe you use a different type of tomato all together, one that is
supposed to be green.. :-?
Its like this: yesterday I inspected the tomatoes very meticulously,
and saw in between the +/- 40 tomatoes 2 (two) that that were really
red.
I tasted them, its as if I ate little waterballoons, no tomato-taste at
all. No taste at all, I mean..just watery and mushy.
So these green ones are unripe.
And the red ones are yucky.
Bought the wrong seedlings this year methinks :/

Pickled green tomatoes are made form unripe tomatoes that woudl become red
if left on the plant. They are often make late in the season if frost is
expected so the tomatoes won't have time to ripen, as they have not yet
begun to lighten in color, preceedign the reddening process. If still
truely green even thougth full grown, they will not ripen off the plant so
get turened into the pickles for winter use.

Hybrids have everything but taste.

Heirloom tomatoes exist because somebody liked their flavor.
