Say what? One can be trained how to judge about about tomato taste?.
The outline of the site is different from what I remembered so many years ago, but the mission was the same as in referring to varieties as F1 hybrids when they weren't..
I didn't recheck but I don't think they sell seeds at all, just fruits in various places in Europe and also in the US,There was a reference to the person in charge of US sales.

Why do you say that they are not F1? I'm also pretty sure that is a seed catalog that I linked. Looks like they do commercial sales. Passing off heirlooms as F1 with all those resistance traits would be dangerously close to fraud.
