All Sides with Ann Fisher - 10:00 AM - TOMATOES: Celebrated, Home Grown, and on the Market
What would your life be like without homegrown tomatoes? Maybe not as delicious. Though technically a fruit, the USDA labels the tomato as a vegetable. As a "vegetable" it's the second most popular in the nation, as the U.S. consumes over 5 billion dollars worth of them per year. This next hour we're devoting entirely to the tomato; as we talk about its presence in backyards, at summer festivals, and in the supermarket- as well as its perks and its flaws.
Guests:
* Mary Hudson (Reynoldsburg Tomato Festival)
* Debra Knapke (Ohio's "Garden Sage")
* Barry Estabrook (author and investigative food journalist)
