A lot of tomatoes grown and sold in Europe are also tasteless.<p>In the UK, most supermarket tomatoes are imported from The Netherlands or Spain (two of the largert exporters of tomatoes in Europe). The tomatoes are mostly tasteless, regardless of the variety. Even the organic ones have only a little bit more flavour.<p>So tasteless tomatoes aren&#x27;t just an American phenomenon, they are common in Europe too. That&#x27;s what modern, mass-procuded agriculture gives us: tasteless, low-cost produce all-year round (because price mostly trumps other factors for many, if not most, consumers)
