Growers of the luxuryOmakase strawberry are out with a new gourmet fruit today — the "Rubī" tomato, Hope writes.
Driving the news: Oishii, the vertical farming company based in Jersey City, New Jersey, announced that select Whole Foods Markets will sell a $10 box of 11 Japanese varietal "fruit tomatoes."
But Closer got a sample.
The verdict: We found them packed with a rich and distinct flavor that was juicy, sweet, bright and with just the right amount of tang.
I could see myself reaching for these like a box of candy.
