Surely just cos they're genetically similar, doesn't mean they might not taste different?

eg better soil, better weather conditions etc. I find slightly pricier ones are nicer than the v cheapest alternatives - that's not just about getting lucky with ripeness.

(Course it could just be me fooling myself...)
