Thinking about it, I do prefer smaller veg. I don't have a greenhouse so smaller veg grows so much better for me. I've tried beefsteak tomatoes but I don't get a good harvest. In contrast, I'm swimming in cherry tomatoes.
Same goes for sweet peppers where I've switched to smaller ones like Jimmy Nardello and Mini Bell. Miniature White cucumber is tiny at under 5cm so it can be eaten in one go rather than stored in the fridge.
My favourite lettuce is Little Gem, a small cos type. I also prefer the single portion winter squash and pumpkins. Much easier to grow and cook.
I even prefer shallots to onions. Less fussy, store well and I can use the whole thing in cooking. I'd never get through a whole onion in one go.
