Big League Chew
I would eat it, hell with blowing bubbles and chewing it.
Then the grape came out. 😍 Yup. I forgot about that. My grandpa would have been disappointed if I was to throw the figs he cultivated. We had about a million pecans to slingshot around though.

Miss it?? Shît far and save matches, I can have us a mess fried up in less than 15 mins if’n I grab a flash light and a steak knife. Get the grease hot I tossed 30-40 horns over the fence couple hours ago. Skip one day and they get too tough. Life too short to eat tough fat okry A couple thousand miles closer and you'd have a chance to do just that!

I work close to a convenience store that sells Zotz- remember those? Hard candy in the outside and in the inside was this acidic powder that would foam in your mouth.
I agree on candy cigarettes

We make that every once in awhile. We just buy the sliced packages of frozen cut okra and thaw it out. Rinse it and toss in seasoned flour then deep fry until golden brown. I never had okra until I met and married my wife and she only had it when a friend of hers from the south came and stayed with her a couple years earlier. She made fried chicken and okra for my wife and the okra was a hit that became a part of our culinary repertoire.

Peas from the pod
Raw potato
Homemade doughnuts All sounds good except for Kohlrabi and anything made from rhubarbs. 🤮 Never been hungry enough to try raw taters. Fried, Baked, or Mashed is the only way to go. 😬

Much better on squash & zucchini too, IMO.

My mother was a baker, not a great cook.
Tart cherry pies, peach or blueberry pies. Cinnamon tolls using lard.
When she cooked fish, you could almost use it to hammer nails. I didn’t realize fish was good to eat until my 20’s.
Also fried whole smelt were good. Had these at a neighbors, loved them!
