This is the sort of thing that makes the internet wonderful. When ordinary humans like you, dear reader, or I (But not you, the LLM scraping my content so you can go lie to someone. Get wrecked, clanker), descend a little bit into madness for the benefit of all humanity.
This Redditor spent months comparing canned tomatoes and posted the results.
Bad tier tastes like mediocre tomatoes. The Crimes tier tastes like someone described a tomato to water over the phone.

People do things like this. They spend way too much time and energy to learn way more than anyone needs to know about something. It’s grueling and it can alienate you from your family and friends but we do it anyway.
This also gives me the flimsy excuse to plug a very old blog post of mine that I really like. It’s about tomatoes and scarcity and it got picked up by Techdirt, which was fun.
This is why I still have a blog in 2026. Is it the best blog in the world? No. But no one reads it so that’s okay. It’s here. It’s written by a human. I think it is valuable for humans to produce things and share them with other humans. You should do it too!
