Tomatoes are a green fruit. Fried green tomatoes are a food dish found in the Southern U.S., made from unripe tomatoes.
Putting an unripe tomato in the sunlight is a bad way to ripen them. The best place to put an unripened tomato is on top of your refrigerator. The warmth is what helps them to ripen. Enjoy your tomatoes!

Scientists have introduced a gene into the tomatoes that allow then to be picked green and transported great distances before they ripen completely.
Well, if you keep them in sunlight after you pick them, they will start to ripen. But, I'm not sure about store bought. I would just keep store bought in the fridge. Hope this helped.
"Normally" tomatoes soften as they ripen, so they are usually picked green and shipped in that unripe state so they will stay firm. Just before delivery to the consumer these tomatoes are forced to ripen by gassing with the plant hormone ethylene gas. The consumer gets firm, ripe tomatoes (but less than fully sweet). These tomatoes will soften. Using genetic engineering you can delete or disable the gene for the enzyme that causes the tomatoes to soften as they ripen, so they can be allowed to fully ripen on the vine (and become fully sweet) before they are picked and shipped. The consumer gets firm, ripe, and sweet tomatoes. These tomatoes will remain firm.
