Cherry tomatoes...I haven't grown one sweeter than sungold. Last year was wet and I planted black cherry, pink BB, White Cherry, Sunsugar, Sungold, and super sweet 100.

Sunsugar is by far the most reliable for me. Early sweetness, prolific, and overall consistent great taste, and basically the cages I go to when I want some. I had some in November that were still tasty - we had Okra too until mid-late October!

The sungold may be sweeter, but so many split. Super Sweet 100 is good later in the season; usually in early season they really aren't sweet. Black Cherry, not sweet. White Cherry was sweet later in the season. Pink BB was okay. None of these were near as prolific as Sunsugar, Sungold, and SS100.

The thing is, I gave some of each cherry type to my aunt, and she said White Cherry was her favorite...and I rated White Cherry last of the six. Taste and growing conditions vary, I guess.
