I use canned tomatoes a lot. Less waste, if you don't use them right away they are there when you need them.

Depends on what I'm making but canned tomatoes are probably more often my choice.

Canned tomatoes more often than fresh. I get them by the case at Costco. Like to use the DelMonte Petite Cut Diced Tomatoes. Use fresh tomatoes on burgers and BLTs.

Canned more often than fresh, especially when it comes to sauces for pasta.

Fresh mainly in salads.

Fresh in the summer, any time else 'fresh'

Can for sauces most of the time I made AB's pantry friendly tomato sauce for the first time a few weeks ago, 2 cans of whole tomatoes.... awesome

Canned more often than fresh. When I have them fresh I just prefer to eat them raw!
