"These are BEAUTIFUL little tomatoes. The color and shape are so appealing. You want to eat them just because they are so darn pretty. I agree with the other reviewers. The color is actually pale yellow, not white. The flavor is very mild. I have about a dozen tomato varieties in my garden. The Italian Ice were the last to mature, which was actually nice, because it gave me something to look forward to. These plants actually stayed healthier than the other plants in my garden, which fell victim to a disease this year, possibly blight."

"These have to be one of the sweetest, non acidic tomatoes I have ever eaten. I usually get a bit of an acid stomach from eating too many tomatoes but these don't give me any pain. Seeds were very easy to start, plants grow great and transplanted great. Started plants early but late transplant into garden, however, they took off and set flowers right away. Tomatoes came in with other varieties but took about two weeks longer to ripen. They do start dark green, lighten then turn more white. I'm not sure if minerals in certain water would make them turn but you can see by the pic's they are a very creamy white. My entire block is enjoying these sweet treats - also great in salsa or in any topping you want a 'wow' affect. Will plant more next year for sure."

"The tomatoes are wonderful, and are some of my first of the season. As with other reviewers, I found that they ripened from green to white and then to yellow. They are great, almost creamy when eaten while they are white. They are burstingly sweet if you let them go until they turn yellow. The plants are huge and are now nearly a foot taller than their cages. They are producing like crazy, I've never had tomatoes this productive before."

"DON"T LET THE BEAUTIFUL PICTURE IN THE CATALOGUE FOOL YOU! THese tomatoes are not a beautiful creamy white. When they ripen they are yellow! The germination rate is fair but found the plant to be susceptible to wilt, so out of the 18 plants i originally panted I have 9, two of which i purchased at a nursery.
Even though these tomatoes are not what I expected, they flavor is wonderful and they are really pretty, even thought they are yellow. They look very nice in a tomato salad, adding a splash of color.
