Why exactly is it that cherry tomatoes taste so different from other tomatoes?

I used to dislike them too.I think it is the excess liquid in them.
Try grape tomatoes instead.
I just picked a “Black Russian” tomato from my garden.I hope it tastes good because it sure doesn’t look good. XD

@lucillelucillelucille You know, I think I’ve had a Black Russian. A bit sweeter than I normally like (and I normally don’t like sweet), but otherwise quite delicious.

Without knowing, I figure it is because they do not hang on the vine as long.

@Aethelflaed – Was it a dark brownish red color?

@lucillelucillelucille Yeah, where it looked like it should be rotten, but that’s just how it looks?

@Aethelflaed -“Yep”: http://www.google.com/imgres?q=black+Russian+tomato&hl=en&sa=X&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-Address&rlz=1I7ACEW&biw=1280&bih=640&tbm=isch&prmd=ivns&tbnid=dAK9AgTJEjre8M:&imgrefurl=http://www.amazon.com/Black-Russian-Tomato-Plants-Brandywine/dp/B000OOQQMI&docid=sZ_CUt8JDkCjhM&w=300&h=300&ei=YpA4Tq3bOMmosQKSscQq&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=749&page=1&tbnh=112&tbnw=107&start=0&ndsp=23&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0&tx=62&ty=60I suppose they do look rotten! XD

I don’t know why I couldn’t post the link properly

uuummm…cause there are cherries in them? lol IDK, but I love all kinds of tomatoes!

I’ve wondered this too; I love grape tomatoes and can eat an entire carton of them in one sitting. I like regular tomatoes as well but I’ve always wondered why grape tomatoes are just so addicting. Maybe it’s because they have all the flavour of a regular tomato, just compacted into a smaller space.
I am totally guessing though.
