    I don’t get the fuss about fried green tomatoes. These were okay but not my favorite.

      I totally get you! They’re not for everyone. Personally, I love them but I know they can be a bit weird for some folks.

      Nah, fried green tomatoes are the best! You just gotta season them right. Maybe try again with some spices! 🤷‍♂️
