Despite 3 frosts, my "little" garden is still mass producing these tomatoes ...

And this does not include the green tomatoes we picked and put in paper bags to help them ripen sooner....

Wow! That's a lot of tomatoes!

I have a question for ya! Are green tomatoes (aka Fried Green Tomatoes) unripe regular tomatoes or a different kind of tomato altogether?

I had some for the first time when I was visiting my Dad and his wife in Kentucky two years ago and they were sooooooooooo good! I'm not much of a fan of tomatoes in general, so I was really unconvinced that I was going to like them. One bite, they tasted lemony, and absolute heaven!

Yep...Fried Green Tomatoes are unripe. I put flour,salt & pepper together and fry them in butter!(I sound like Paul Deen don't I) They do have a tart taste. YUM!
