    Both are lip smackin' good, . . . cause yer tonsils to applaud the performance.

    May God bless,

    I know my grandparents ate tomatoes with their breakfast more than 40 years ago and they had no southern ties except if you call West Virginia southern. Well it is south of the Buckeye state.

    I love a nice BLT with fresh homegrown tomatoes and thick cut bacon. Yum!

    Any state south of the Mason Dixon line is considered the South. Virginia was one of them, I don't know if W.V. was even a state at the time the division of the north and south were made. I don't recall reading anything about W.V.
    Anyway, it is what they do here, and having grown up in Ohio, I never knew any folks to eat tomatoes with breakfast, or to eat sausage gravy and biscuits.
    I don't care for it, but it's what my Hubby grew up on.

    Actually if what I've been told is correct, . . . most of western virginia did not want to secede from the Union, . . . but had to because the "state" did.

    Later they branched off from "Old Virginia" and became West Virginia.

    My great-great grandparents lost what ever they had during the civil war in Old Virginia. Nobody ever knew much about it, . . . just knew they lost it.

    BUT, . . . anyway, . . . thought I'd share that there good, . . . ohhhh, . . . good stuff for breakfast with y'all.

    And yessum, . . . them there maters came straight from my garden. Not much of one, . . . but I'll take it anyway.

    May God bless,
    Dwight

    And if I remember right, tomatoes are considered a fruit ? So, not so weird to have fruit with breakfast. Good looking maters.
