When most people eat Florida-grown tomatoes, they’re usually adding it to a salad or sandwich.
But to some people, they're apparently good enough to drink too.
Sam Hutton is all about tomatoes. A tomato breeder in Hillsborough County, his tomato experience goes way back.
“I was a little kid when i started being interested tomatoes,” Hutton said. “I had a garden outside my window.”
Now his garden has grown into a seven-acre tomato experiment at the University of Florida’s agricultural extension near Wimauma.
Hutton has been investigating how sweet it can be to be a Florida tomato.
