although I am a cook by trade, I currently work at a grocery store... I noticed in the produce section these mini red tomatoes (and in other packages orange yellow) - mini tomatoes...
I never knew what these were properly called.. anyone know? they're like the size of a nickle or so.. I never used them in any restaurants I've worked in so I'm clueless as to the name.

Translucent/orange colored, commercial variety, hybrid... "ZIMA", if translated from Russian, means "Winter"... Here, in the US it is offered by a company Sunset, same company that offers tomato "Kumato" and "Campari" varieties.
From all the commercial varieties sold in grocery stores, these three are definitely worthy buying when your own tomatoes are not in season.
