Tomato - Shop and Save

Tomatoes are in season between July and September, so they taste great and cost less.
Look for tomatoes that are bright in color and have no darkened areas or bruises under the skin. They should feel firm (not soft), but give slightly when you press on them.
Canned tomatoes are usually low-cost and come in many forms: whole, crushed, diced, stewed, or as juice, sauce, or paste. Consider low-sodium options.
