Re: spoon tomatoes

I know you can save the seeds from heirloom tomatoes, but you can not save
the seeds from hybrids.

You might go to the Wall Mart you bought the plants from and ask them who
their source for the plants is, and maybe you can contact the company
through the inter-net and ask them for more information about the tomatoes.
You can also tell the manager at the garden center about how much you
enjoyed the "spoon tomatoes" and encourage her/him to order them again next
year.

I asked my garden savvy friends if they have heard of this particular
tomato, and no one seems to have heard of them.

I may ask my sources here in town, if they are able to get any.  They sound
fun.
