Uh, you've noticed this, I'm sure.
It is now full of superstar fruits and vegetables.
You got the honey crisp apple, you got the cotton candy grape, the cuties mandarin orange.

It is not.
Uh in fact, almost a century ago, a scientist at Rutgers University, working with the Campbell Soup Company, took the already famous New Jersey tomato and developed a new New Jersey tomato that became
Like the tomato.
For for like a couple decades, if you were eating a tomato, you were very likely eating a descendant of the plump, red, platonic ideal of a tomato that the Rutgers scientist had helped to perfect.

Now, he obviously loved that it was from New Jersey, loved that Rutgers was involved again.
