I grow heirloom tomatoes without government help.
I grow whatever the heck Lowe's sells (and get a ton of them too.). I learned a long time ago, if you leave them on the vine until they are fully ripe, they taste a thousand times better. Of course, mass production shipping to stores can't do that or the supply will rot.
No conspiracy, no changes in the environment, just the result of production differences. No big deal. And absolutely no need for government involvement.
