Attack of the killer tomatoes
My house has been getting weekly vegetables from a Scratch Farm thanks to one of Rhode Island’s many fine CSAs. Last week we received several delicious heirloom tomatoes and one giant freak tomato which threatened the sanctity of our kitchen. From the angle of this photo, it looks a lot like leatherface in produce form.
This weekend in NYC I discovered my parents had a mutant tomato of their own. Apparently my mother came across this strapping young specimen at the supermarket. She brought it to show my father, but neither of them could bear to eat it. The tomato’s studly deformation is enough to make a cucumber blush.
