Why You Shouldn't Store Your Tomatoes in the Fridge

Large scale tomato agriculture involves harvesting tomatoes that are still relatively hard and green. exposing them to etheline gas under cold storage, which is naturally produced by lots of fruits as they ripen. But exposure to the gas causes ripening in storage after they've been picked. The absolute pinnacle tomato experience is probably letting the tomato ripen on the vine, then eating it immediately at its moment of peak ripeness, with no refrigeration on the vine,. like a ria oat man with laslowing down your chest.
