Cuisine of the month:
Tomatoes are made to be robust and to ripen extremely slowly while reddening quickly. You get a fruit that's really firm and tasteless because it's pulled off the vine too soon, but it ships well so stores don't give a fuck. This is why canned tomatoes have a stronger flavor and are recommended more often for sauces etc, because they're cultivars bred for flavor, not structure, harvested at maximum ripeness, and locked there by canning. If you don't fuck with tomatoes because they're mid as hell, a can of San Marzanos on a pizza could change your mind.
Until you have a fresh San Marzano or some kind of heirloom chopped up with a bit of salad, olive oil and parsley on toaster bread, and suddenly your life is transformed forever.
the texture and wetness of a tomato slice are pretty of-putting but apparently most people don't give a shit about texture
I very much give a shit about texture and have strong opinions about which textures I absolutely will not eat.
A tomato slice on a sandwich rules! That's a great texture!
People can have different preferences to you and it doesn't mean they're thoughtless.
They’re used in sandwiches for their wetness/texture
