I grew ground cherries a couple of years back. The seeds were from Baker Creek, although I'm not sure what the variety was at this point. They were really easy to grow and extremely prolific, although they live up to their name of GROUND cherry, as you've got to crawl all over to get the little fruits. They are an unusual combination of sweet and savory, and I always thought they had a slightly yeasty flavor. I wasn't a huge fan, but there definitely were some at the farmer's market where I sold them.
