Oh, Those Costco Hotdogs!

Honestly, the cheapest lunch in the world, and truly, one of the most satisfying. The Costco Hotdog. $1.50 for hotdog and a drink. The onions, sauerkraut, relish and just added win.

What the hell is a Kumato?

Three Kumatos for 50 cents at NoFrills

These cute little packages of three were on sale at the grocery store the other day, so I picked it up, and then noticed the label. Kumato. No description on the package of what a Kumato is supposed to be, but it sure looked like a tomato.

So, I took it home, cut it open, sprinkled it with sea salt and took a bite.

Hmmm. Tastes like a tomato. Color is a bit green on the outside, tomato-ey on the inside.

Kumato sliced

Wikipedia says a Kumato is a variety of tomato developed in Spain, and is only grown by selected growers around the world. It is a bit sweeter than a regular tomato.

Interestingly, a regular person can't buy the Kumato seeds - they are only sold to registered growers who have undergone a "rigorous" selection process.
