Hothouse tomatoes are always in season... and from an enviro and shop local standpoint, they're probably the better deal. They're grown locally, they're much fresher, and they didn't have to be packed and shipped halfway across the country... and frankly, many of the world's better-respected chefs these days often admit that CANNED tomatoes are frequently a better choice for many dishes.
For me - eat in season REALLY applies to one are: fruit (besides tomatoes
Hothouse tomatoes basically taste like ****. Canned tomatoes, good ones, are fine.
