My husband thinks I'm paranoid, but I said the same thing about our tomatoes!! We live right outside of the square and aren't exactly on a main corner, but our ripe tomatoes have been disappearing. Our plants are in our (shared) backyard, though, which narrows down the list of potential suspects. I know that an animal hasn't been swiping them because they've been cleanly plucked with no bite marks, seeds, or any remnants of the fruit nearby. None of the unripe food has been taken and none of the surrounding veggies have been touched. I don't know it says about the world today, but the fact that someone would actually steal a ripe tomato from another person's plant is just sad. And pathetic...
