tomato competition

For years now I've loved the Wild Wonders tomatoes, a mix of tasty greenhouse-grown cherry tomatoes of various shapes and colors, but high flavor.

Recently I've been seeing Maverick Mix, a similar mix of cherry tomatoes, decent though not as flavorful. In very similar packaging. I'd wondered if it was a re-branding, but as far as I can tell the two are from two different companies, Sunset Farms and Village Farms. MM seems new as of this year, from one article. No one on the searchable Internet seems to have compared the two yet, so, breaking news, I guess.

I always check where my fruit and veg are grown... and perhaps there is a copyright on the blend name and the other company had to pick a different one.
