@bower Thanks for the information. Okay. I think I'm possibly beginning to understand what flavors the beta carotene gene is responsible for (the ones I know are, anyway). Galapagos Island does taste quite a bit different than other beta carotene tomatoes I've tried, but I think there's a taste in common, too. It's not a sweet taste, though! It actually tastes more like a true yellow tomato to me, though. It gets yellow first, and then turns golden when extra ripe (but not outright orange); it's the same color profile as my Sweet Orange Cherry tomato (and Yellow Riesentraube). Big Sungold Select gets quite orange, however. Maybe those have the gene, too.
