Can I grow tomato plants from a tomato?

Hello. I am living in Panama and would like to grow tomatoes. I have not been able to find tomato plants or packaged seeds, I guess because it is warm here so they can grow stuff year round, but still the tomatoes I get from the store are nothing compared to the "real" homegrown tomatoes. Is there a way to use the seeds from an actual tomato and be able to have new plants? Should I just stick a tomato in the dirt and hope for the best?

There's a web site that tells you, step by step, how to collect the seeds and prepare the seeds for planting. It's:
Reply:A: you need to ensure that the tomato is OP (open Pollenated)


B: You need to ensure that the tomato is not a hybrid


C: You need to ensure that the seeds were saved from a dead ripe tomato, NOT a green one


D: Starting tomatoes from seed, the soil should be at 86F/30C for ideal germination
