I'm not a big fan but Liam loves these

@latebloomer they have a tomatoish flavour but can be bitter if they're not ripe. The problem is they are meant to go full on yellow and the case papery when they're ripe but mine go papery and fall off but stay green.

Our granddaughter loves them. I could take or leave them. Not my favourite.
