Title: [Market-farming] Tomato seed
I like Park's Improved Whopper. It produces well and is more resistant to late blight than most others. And better flavor than most hybrids.

A few years ago I grew a tomato that sold really well at market.  It was Red Sun from Johnny’s, a medium-size, nice red round tomato with really good flavor and productivity.  It was perfect for those customers who are still wary of the heirlooms (because they don’t look like grocery store tomatoes) and fit well into our mix of tomatoes.  Does anyone have a tomato like this that they really, really like.  I always like to hedge my bets with a hybrid or two.
