Tomatoes

I tell you guys this, you cut them open and the aroma is magnificant as is the flavor.

Geesh a mouth watering quote if there ever was one!

That is why homegrown always taste better. The ones at the store have to picked green so they can make it to market before they rot. If they let them ripen on the vine and pick them they'd spoil before they got to market.

I only eat tomato sandwich's with homegrown...why waste mayo and bread on store bought...

I love BLT's but there's something about a simple "mater" sammich that kicks me good.   Mayo on both slices of bread, thick slice of tomato, salt and pepper...and a glass of sweet tea!  Yum!!!!!

Garden tomatoes are about as good as it gets.

Nothing you can buy in a store can compare.

Hmmmm.  Might have to try me one of them "mater" sammiches.

I remember as a kid visiting my Grandmother, EVERY meal included a big plate of quartered garden tomatoes, salted and peppered as a side dish.

Mmmmmm.

Been growing Beefsteak Tomatoes for a few years now..  Love them things!  It's like a slice of prime-rib when you cut it..

Grew some Amish Paste tomatoes this year as well..  Made some killer sauce with them a few weeks ago..  Took 8 hours..
Cooked bones in the sauce..  Added all fresh ingredients from our garden(included all the spices except for pepper)..
The sauce has two bottles of cheap some arsed Chianti in it..  My wife and I found ourselves eating it by the spoonfuls without
putting it on anything..  I probed for a recipe(on this forum even) and couldn't get one..  So I just winged it from various memories 
of cooking going on in a friend's moms' kitchen..  I'm a chef by trade(and schooling), so winging it and seeing what happens is what we thrive on....
It gets old sticking to a routine (cooking the same dishes) all the time..
