Used to be a lot of sammiches made with
I get that
I read an article last year about mass grown grocery store tomatoes that made sense. They are bred to survive the long hard journey in a truck to a grocery store (wherever it may be) from the distant locations where most in the US main market are grown i.e. California, Florida, South TX and border states and Mexico. Those are all a long way from interior states, eastern seaboard, Northwest and Midwest.
I’m a little ahead of you. I have 20 Cherokee Purple’s full of green tomatoes. These are doing much better than in years past for some reason. My plants are huge and I’m guessing milder weather with more rain.
The fried green tomatoes you get in restaurants now days aren’t good, no flavor and too much breading. My mom sliced a green tomatoe about 1/8 inch thick and just dredged it in cornmeal before frying. I’ve never seen one like hers in a restaurant. Hers were fabulous.
White bread that sticks to the top of your mouth is underrated
Most store bought tomatoes are harvested “green”, sprayed with a ripener and ripen off the vine. I have friends that farm tomatoes in Indiana. Their harvester machine has a color sorter and actually kicks out the ripe red tomatoes. Like you said it just has to do with the amount of travel from farm to store to table. If you harvested ripe tomatoes they wouldn’t make it far.
My wife wanted to do her own from seed so these are a couple of weeks behind and her seedlings were pretty frail. I planted 25 Cherokee Purples and 20 Amish Paste. Got the 18 looking good but only 10 of the AP's made it.
They are coming to Pennsylvania next month. At least it won't be during football season where he will tell me how good OM is doing with the Suave in his hair, and oh yes, he loves bacon tomato sandwiches fixed over the kitchen sink.
Gets a sandwich and a shampoo affect in one sitting.
while I celebrate tomato season whole heartedly and with great enthusiasm....... Please don't bring such sacrilegious nonsense to light. open face tomato sandwich is about the dumbest thing I have ever heard......2 pieces of bread, mayo both sides, salt and pepper the mayo and the tomato close up the sandwich and eat anywhere you want.w. a plate under each bite so you can take more bread and get the drippings.
i freaking love this post!! even better, 2 slices of bologna on bottom of bread, then a thin layer of lettuce, then tomato stack, then bacon, then close up this masterpiece with bread
No doubt about it a tomato and mayo sandwich with mayo! These day I’ve found myself loving Helman’s spicy mayo but yeah regular mayo with my tomato sandwhich usually or both in which case you recommend bc **** gets slick. Been killing some fried green tomatoes recently as well
I’ve thought about making a sandwich with those and about to try itThat’s the thing I did to but I gotta salt em at least if I eat em that way not that won’t but much rather and I’m almost 39 and health it atrocious but nothing to do with weight or anything I have 4 autoimmune diseases if you count the gut autoimmune diseases including Ankylosing Spondylitis and Muscular Dystrophy at advanced levels it’s about to kill me after having the single largest surgery they said they’ed ever done at Vanderbilt on a spine which was a 13 hour 20 level fusion in which they rolled me over went through my throat too and lost my ability to swallow for a year and 4 months afterwards I almost died and had to be intubated for a while. Its. Like they built scaffolding inside my back trust me. Front top C spine to Lumbar shoulder blade width. Now it’s failed me and I have to have everything re done completely at the Mayo Clinic. It’s horrifying but I handle **** well so I’ll make it. I’m waiting on my fiance to get over her own unfair syndrome that came out of no where and took away here ability to walk. No one part of life has been easy and no one promised it would. Just the stuff with my best friend and soulmate in my fiance of 15 years as she she has always been this beautiful sexy girl who could do whatever she wanted had such a setback killed me. So yeah
I love my damn foods now that I can eat and swallow!!!!
I don't ever buy Hellman's but I aint ever mad if that's the option. And I say that spicy mayo is gonna go hard on a fried green tomato sammich.No doubt about it a tomato and mayo sandwich with mayo! These day I’ve found myself loving Helman’s spicy mayo but yeah regular mayo with my tomato sandwhich usually or both in which case you recommend bc **** gets slick.

I didn’t think someone as opened minded and caring as you would be a homophobe.
Sugar in cornbread is yankee nonsense
Yuck, I like the acidic tomatoes grown in Mississippi soil. They have a stronger flavor and will let you know if you have wind burned lips with a nice sting. I hate the tomatoes from other places like New Jersey where they claim the amber in the soil gives them a special sweetness (they claim they are the best in the world and I've tried one). Yada, yada, yada! Grow a pair and eat a Mississippi tomato which are actually the best in the world. If I want a sweet fruit I'll eat an apple.
Same for spaghetti. My wife makes spaghetti handed down from her Michigan ancestors. Secret ingredient is sugar! When she makes it I get my Hot Ones sauces out and adjust the flavor. Those sauces can do wonders to Yankee dishes!
A little bit is alright. I don't hate it as much as I thought.
Cincinnati chili is legit. Now it uses cinnamon instead of sugar but still.
We used to have a farm hand that would wrap lunch meat around a Suzi Q cake.
This is nonsense. And not only is it delicious on watermelon, but apples and cantaloupes too.
Oh trust me it does that **** is incredible! Hellman’s spicy mayo brings just that right amount of heat in a hella good product. Great on anything to me. I put it on my bbq buns in place of mayo at home, very versatile condiment if you like mayo and a new amazing slightly rendition of mayo with a little kick it slays. I also love their pretty good sized squirt bottles, I’ve found myself putting that **** on everything he’ll even cornbread
