Fried Green Tomatoes


In all my travels,
many foods I've tried.
But only in Indiana
did I eat tomatoes fried.
They flour and fry them
before they are ripe.
As long as they're green,
they'll eat any type.
But that is not all,
that I have to tell.
For they eat squash and zucchini,
fried as well.
One more thing,
I'd like to impart.
It's something I've said,
right from the start.
So when in Indiana,
if its food from the ground,
Just flour, and fry it,
and pass it around.
