    Wow, that is huge!! Do they taste good when they get that large?

    For those who use centimeters for measurements, that coin is 2.5 centimeters in diameter ;)

    I wish I had one that large .I would take a slice and put on a homemade cheeseburger (one slice would cover the whole bun and munch away.What a burger.

    That's one big mater Pepperdude! One year I had a few tomatoes that were as big as a musk melon. I've never been able to do that again!

    Well Richard, those are nice tomatoes, ours are still green, except for the grape tomatoes. We never get any that big any way.
