Modern miracle from the Sacramento Valley feeds the world. It's horribly overlooked | Opinion
Briefly

"We have taken the California Tomato for granted. We have underestimated its reach. We have overlooked its remarkable evolution. And here in Sacramento, the epicenter of a veritable tomato empire, we simply don't appreciate what we have."
"It is this humble, everyday staple that is coming from our fields. The processing tomato is like a backup singer. In a dish like pizza, something else other than the sauce is ultimately the star of the show. Taking away the tomato from any recipe, however, is the equivalent of lungs being deprived of oxygen."
