AYRT - I don't generally eat them whole, but I do like sundried tomato pesto if I get bored with normal basil pesto, and I like them more than normal tomatoes (raw tomatoes taste weird to me for unknown reasons). I'm also perplexed that they're lumped together with saffron. It's like saying, "You don't need vanilla extract or rosewater, those are for bakers," when vanilla extract is available at a reasonable price and goes in a lot of things and rosewater is an acquired taste and expensive as hell.
Raw tomatoes do have a different flavor though, I have to agree with you there. I like the flavor of sun-dried better too, though it's not like I HATE normal tomatoes or anything.
I like this recipe because it doesn't have pine nuts: http://www.lordbyronskitchen.com/sun-dried-tomato-pesto/
But if you are lazy, like me, you can also buy it jarred: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Classico-Sun-Dried-Tomato-Pesto-Sauce-and-Spread-Pasta-Sauce-8-1-oz-Jar/10307628
