In Alabama, i hear that tomato growing is as popular, and serious, as drinking bear and hunting.

Damn alcoholic bears. I blame Yogi.
 



I have a strong preference for acidic/salty/sour/tart/savory foods...and tomatoes aren't THAT acidic. A buddy of mine tried to surprise me with Sour Patch candy (or some such) and was VERY disappointed when I didn't so much as flinch.

I like savory foods, for sure. It's strange that neither of my parents were really into garlic, onions, tomatoes, or olives and I love all those things.

Maybe my mother was right: I was switched at the hospital.

(Hmmm...I'm starting to sound like the tomato version of Bubba...)

Is it wrong that I want to hear it?
 


I used to get a Clams Casino pizza from one pizzeria. It wasn't your usual red sauce with mozzarella type pizza though. If I remember correctly, it has a garlic & olive oil brushed crust, with cooked clams & seasoned bread crumbs (lots of oregano, because you could taste it) spread lightly over it, and I can't remember what cheese but it might have been a blend of mozzarella & provolone or mozzarella & swiss. It was really good, but I guess it wasn't that popular, because they stopped making it.

After that my favorite was a Greek style white pizza w/ grilled chicken, onions, feta, spinach, & tomatoes.

Welcome back to ENWorld, last time I remember seeing this poster name was a few years ago. Pizza does good things!
 

Holy crap where did you find this picture? It's a little gasthaus in the Bavarian Alps... I've actually been there. Didn't realize the place was so desperate that they started serving the wild life though...

Tomatoes, oh where do I begin; Jet Stars, Better Boys, Rosy Girls, Early Girls, Daisy Belles, Heirloom... So many varieties, so little time. Out of the 300+ I've tried about 75. I think I need to step up my game a little. :)

1 ore month and the first plants should be coming in out of the garden. Yay! Midwest farming, oh how I've missed you.
