What’s your favorite vegetable and how do you like to eat it? Or do you have a favorite dish that hides a vegetable that you don’t like?

I LOVE Sweet Corn. The sweeter the better. The brand I loveds is Super Sweet Corn on the Cob. Where I am from in Missouri, you could walk right out to the field and pick you an ear and just stand there and enjoy!

We also had a Sweet Corn Festival every year around the 4th of July just to celebrate our wonderful vegetable. We have parades, outhouse races, street dances, bike races, beauty contests. Always a great time fall all. I loved getting a case of corn to put up in the freezer. Makes my mouth water just thinking of it. Living in Florida, I haven’t found sweet corn that is as good as Missouri’s, but I will keep on looking.

Now then on the other end of the scale there are tomatoes. For some reason, I don’t think God put much work in that veggie. I don’t think the thing is done cooking. Its just toooooooooo yuk in the middle. The only way I will eat a tomato, because I know it has some wonderful vitamins in it, is to eat it on a sandwich or in a salad or sauce. But, never I mean NEVER by itself

Oh I totally agree. I do NOT like tomatoes at all. They are very YUCKY! I can’t even eat them at ALL! Despite the wonderful vitamins they are chock full of. YUCK!

Corn is good! Now I’m dying to have some. I love corn on the cob except they get caught in my teeth. Oh well!

LOL, I LOVE tomatoes! That is the veggie I can eat right off the vine. And I have to agree with the sweet corn…but I do believe we in WI have the best…*G*

What a beautiful layout.

Oh I love fresh corn too. We use to buy some over the foley way when my kids were little. Haven’t made the trip in years though. Probably should and pick up some field peas and “Fresh Tomatoes” while I am there, LOL. I love tomatoes too. Like I said there are few vegetables I really don’t like.

We go to our local corn festival every year and gorge. LOL.

Best corn on cob I ever ate was from a street vendor in Tijuana, Mexico. Roasted, dipped in butter,rolled in some type of cheese, and sprinkled with seasoned salt. One time. And I still dream about that ear.

Thanks for sharing!
