The classic beefsteak tomato of yesteryear is back! Massive fruit, easily reaching 1 to 2 lbs, has deep red flesh and good old-fashioned tomato flavor. These are the tomatoes that Grandma grew; meaty and firm, perfect on sandwiches or served straight up with a pinch of salt. A particularly good producer in the Northeast, but well adapted to the entire U.S. as well. Scientists recently determined that Beefsteak’s massive fruit was originally caused by a chance mutation. This happy accident created a much larger tomato. Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortez brought samples of a larger, flattened tomato back to Europe. From this seed was developed many larger tomatoes we know today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59511150870814,"sku":"TM111","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/2280\/5022\/files\/tomato_classic_beefsteak_1.jpg?v=1782397082","url":"https:\/\/www.rareseeds.sbs\/products\/tomato-classic-beefsteak","provider":"RareSeeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
