Tomatoes , tomatoes!

I walked into wal-mart today with my mother, and we found that the tomatoes that were on sale for on sale for .50 cents a pound last week were now 12 dollars for the 50 pound case. My mother makes all her pasta sauces, stewed tomatoes and everything herself. As for myself, I haven't decided yet, I guess I'll have to dig out the old cook book! Can you freeze tomatoes? lol! Unusual brag but hey, I love tomatoes.

Tomatoes are my wife's favorite snack. She'd go wild for that deal. Great find!

you can freeze tomatoe but they are only good for sauce after that and they have to be thawed in the sink and let all the moisture/water drain from them or else you get very watery sauce...

Each year my dad grows a bazzillion vegetables including tomates and only mom and dad live at home lol.. anyhow lots of free veg for us. Anyhow he jars all his own tomatoes and wow can you taste the difference. Thats a great deal if you don't grow your own.
