Our commercially grown crap sounds like your commercially grown crap. Disgusting stuff.

Those big beefsteak heirloom tomatoes in the south are literally like beefsteaks. Not a watery salad item... those things literally cut like a steak and taste incredible. And they're huge. Unfortunately I never got to taste the homemade Ozzie varieties before leaving. Good to know they're just as nice by the sounds.

What was this thread about?...

Oh my...I grew up with a big ole sliced tomatoes like that on the dinner table every night...

I know a really funny joke about big ole food..but it doesn't work in print... And has nothing to do with why Australia is so bad at cycling either..

Damn I go on vacation for a week and I miss the fact that hockey suddenly became a summer sport? Huh, who woulda thunk with the whole sheet of ice and the fact that it's regular season is during the winter months and all . . .
