I was mainly thinking about the usual supermarket deliveries, perhaps a lot of the tomatoes are transported at less the 4 degrees as they are often tasteless!!!
Go on…
Ask me how many loads of tommies I did on Mainland Market Deliveries in a curtainsider, ok I’ll tell you, loads!
Chill tommies during transport but, the real secret of the supermarket tomato is to leave it alone at ambient temperature for a day or two before you eat it. Chilling is just to keep the product from rotting, the real taste of any food (except ice cream) can be found at room temperature.
