This morning a song sprang into my mind and would not go away. I automatically substituted Tomatoes for Bananas but I thought maybe we should record it. John could provide the accompanying music and Sarah could sing it. Then we can put it on a CD and distribute it to every restaurant that ignores our great local produce and also maybe put it on You Tube with any of you that want to volunteer, serving as dancers to dance to the music. Here it is:
"Yes, we no gotta de tomatoes. We no gotta-da tomato today,but one-a menoots! We gotta new kinda garlic –
When-a use-a dees garlic, it-a meka you stand apart-a from-a you friends.
We gotta 64,000 watermelone! We don’t-a sell any, but the guy we buy’em from…Mama mia! Does he sell a watermelone!
But-a yes! We no gotta the tomatoes. Hey, why you-on?
We no gotta de tomatoes today!
Yes! Ah, we have no tomatoes! What’s that? An half a tomato? Now what good is a tomato split? Uh-huh-huh-huh! We have a muttons, and buttons, and kippers with zippers,and pounds of devaluated pounds…“Tomato”: S T I N K ! They ain’t no stinkin’ tomato! Precisely! They ain’t no stinking tomato!
Yes! Ah, we have no tomato! Pip pip, cheerio, and *******! Uh-huh-uh-huh-uh-huh! "
Come on dudes and dudettes you can seeng dis music. Seeng it now, let eet mekka your day! Ah-hah! I see you dancing now! Not the hokey pokey! You got to sway to dis music! Do it now!

What a shame that some local restaurants don't use local tomatoes. They are SO good! I've been able to continue enjoying tomato sandwiches, thank goodness.
You've got a very interesting blog. Glad I found it.
