Much maligned among tomato nerds, I found Thai Pink Egg surprisingly pleasant this year. Perhaps the dry conditions amended its reputed blandness or perhaps it simply has an undeserved bad rap. Admittedly, it is a mild tasting tomato but not excessively so. The relatively firm and meaty nature of the fruit makes it great for salads, salsas or sauce. It has a modest growth habit with stiff, rugose foliage. It would hardly require staking but for the heavy fruitset. It is an abundant producer of beautiful, crack resistant pink fruits. A good alternative to a generic Roma. From Thailand.
