Any chance that one actually says Cheruban? If so, that is probably from me and is unfortunately misspelled (sorry) with me transposing some letters.
The actual name is Cheburan, which came from an offer from Marsha last year and I really enjoyed it. Here is her description:
Cheburan (Gurin) - cocktail sized very tasty but acid, super prolific, long hang time, 1-1.5 oz fruit on a vigorous RL vine

And here is a picture and description on a Ukranian site:
https://ekzotomat.in.ua/en/tomato-seeds ... buran.html

When I grew it last year it was very vigorous, did quite well resisting diseases and had good production with no real splitting or other issues. I really enjoyed the taste (rich, but a nice acidity as well to keep it interesting). Color-wise it was close to rust, so different than most of my other tomatoes. I thought they were great and will be growing them again.

For anyone who got these from me, please make sure to use the correct name so we don't' wind up with them circulating misnamed.

Would the Serendipity be a Dwarf variety? Or is it the beefsteak with yellow fruit? Looking for information on this type online and I'm getting multiple results

That might be one of mine! The seeds come from Heritage Harvest Seeds in Alberta. She doesn't have much information on where they came from, unfortunately. They are red and orange striped saladettes on a indeterminate plant. She lists them as 65 days to maturity, which seems about when they've ripened for me. I found them decently flavoured, although a bit on the acidic side, and very productive. They also managed to set in my godawful cold summer last year so I'd say they're quite reliable. I hope that helps!

There are two varieties with that name. Last report from an MMMM participant's growout is that it is the bi-color, not the dwarf.

[mention]steve ok[/mention] I had a question on the Marzano Fire tomato seeds I got. After searching I cannot find for sure if it is determinate or indeterminate. I find both in my searches. Also, is it open pollinated?

[mention]KarenO[/mention] I did look at them, but didn't see where it says hybrid or open pollinated. Could be I missed it?

Could Junitneude actually be Junifreude? That one is a deep red cocktail tomato, not overly tall and nicely flavorful.

You may have solved that mystery. I've held onto that variety for three years, occasionally doing a search, but always striking out. The t's & f's and n's & r's can easily look similar when hand written.

As I've posted before, this is my first swap and I'm just blown away and so excited to look through all of these lovely seeds! Thanks again [mention]Tormato[/mention] and [mention]MissS[/mention] !

I had a few that, after searching online, I'm still unsure about. I am posting them here hoping for some info on each of them. I so appreciate the seeds and any info anyone can share on these varieties.

Bacon, Lettuce, and This
Swoon
Belgium #7
Could Belgium Triumph be Bulgarian Triumph?
Rose Aragon
Peiping Chich? (It's difficult to read, so I may have spelled the last word incorrectly)

THANK YOU!

Belgium #7. Whoops I made a huge mistake. It is BULGARIAN #7. It is described as 80 days, Reg leaf, indet., regular leaf, red round fruit, slightly oblate, growing in clusters of 4-5, very good flavor., regular leaf plant with very high yield of 4-8 oz red fruit, very good flavor. Seeds trace to the tomato-history expert Andy Smith, whose son brought it from Bulgaria.
