prunes

California Sun Dried has prunes with a touch of orange. They're pretty good.

No you don't, you just think you do.

You're a goober. No one hates sun dried tomatoes. That's just dumb. That's like saying you hate kittens. Nobody hates kittens.

 

[theFallGuy]

also, pistachios are the bomb

I don't hate them, but I avoid them if possible.......just like kittens.

@Behr & @VolNExile, Can you two please put this feud behind you and be friends again? I hate seeing you old timers hurt.

lol

He took me literally, so it’s not like I can be a whiny-butt about it.

I appreciate when you repost my food questions, and I appreciate when he replies.

 

[Behr]

Y'all is silly.

I love them in cooked dishes like meatloaf and
some sort of rice* dish with a million different ingredients, where you get this concentrated explosion of sweet, tomato flavor.

I wouldn’t throw them into a salad or whatever. Just me.

* edit to add: and pasta dishes of course, as Behr mentioned. Duh me.

The only sundried tomatoes that I have eaten on a salad tasted rotted. I picked too many as a kid and when you grabbed one with a rotten spot on the back, the smell is what sun dried tomatoes taste like too me.

See if you can find a packet of sundried tomatoes, even if it’s the Bella-whatsit stuff. It’s generally in the produce section, often waist high or lower. They don’t taste rotten at all. They’re like raisins or jerky etc. so it’s like the difference between good jerky and day-old roadkill.

Again, it’s this intense explosion of (good) flavor.

 

[Behr]

Yea, that's not what they taste like. Little penne pasta, olives, Gorgonzola, crushed red pepper, olive oil, sun dried tomatoes, garbanzo beans, Arugula salt and pepper...maybe some pepperoni, and pancetta, boon Noogas. Sounds good to me.

I'll see your fried green tomato and top it with a fried green tomato sammich. Boon.
