Classic tomato sandwich...

When my wife and I first met,. She called this "poor people food"...until she had one with home grown tomatoes...

Classic Tomato Sandwich

When tomatoes are at their summertime peak of ripeness, this Southern classic makes sure to let them shine, sandwiching thick slices between white bread and mayo.

Just like with a BLT.
You've never had a BLT until you've had one with homegrown tomatoes.

I love tomato and mayo sandwiches, with bacon and lettuce on them.
On toast.

I dont know what they did this year for the peaches but man are they good!!!
The Wife will generally pick up one peach to test em out and 9 times out of 10 it gets tossed in the garbage.
I haven't had a peach this good in ten years,I'm going through em as fast as the Wife can buy em.

Tomato sandwiches are probably one of my favorite things to eat.

Mortgage Lifters are the best heirloom tomatoes I have ever eaten.

There's nothing like fried green tomatoes. They go best with chicken-fried steak, mashed potatoes, white gravy, and corn.

I've had so-so results trying to grow them.

Me too. I love them. I haven't had a REAL good one for about 30 years though. That tomato came from the Netherlands to CA and it was spendy $3/lb as I recall. It reminded me of the tomatoes when I was a kid. The tomatoes in the stores don't have that flavor--they're beautiful to look at but not so much flavor. I haven't found a type of tomato to grow where I have gotten THAT flavor. Close a couple of times from farmers markets but just not quite there. I keep trying though.

It looks like the floor is the next thing under the bacon.

Did you forget your tomato again?

With the abundance of 'maters we're having this year, and because of this thread, I just had to go in the kitchen and make a 'mater sammich.

Mine too. I wait alllllll year for the first tomato to get ripe. Mrs. MO knows how to keep me working the garden...but she also understands where my loyalties lie. The tomatoes are going to make it...everything else is secondary...
