For anyone that has been following the success (or maybe lack of success) of my compost bin volunteer tomato plant, it has nearly taken over the compost bin and finally did bear fruit. What is interesting is that it seems to look like an ugly tomato, which I have grown from seed nor purchased from the grocery store or farmer's market. I guess the plot thickens, could just be caused by the ill effects of the adverse growing conditions.

Have you grown, or bought, any hybrid tomatoes? Offspring from hybrid tomatoes can be very mixed, and completely unlike their parents.
Good point, pretty good chance the tomato was a hybrid so guess if could end up looking like anything.
A tomato is a tomato is a tomato and will taste just as sweet. Eat those suckers and don't look back. Umm. Fried green tomato sandwich.
There are plenty of non-hybrids (heirlooms) that look like that. They still taste so much better than plain round grocery store type tomatoes and hybrids.
