A few years ago, we changed from regular old Florida Broadleaf mustard to a tendergreen type - japanese Komatsuna, often called "Spinach Mustard" here. They wanted no part of it at first - until we gave some to a lady from a local black church and told her to cook it for their Wednesday night pot luck. She did, and the whole congregation was down at the stand on Thursday begging for some.
I've got some seed for heirloom "ripe-when-green" tomatoes that I'm going to grow for fun next year - in the flower gardens by the house. I can't wait to take a plate to our church potluck - it will blow their minds. My wife says they won't touch them. Personally, I'm not a big fan of tomato. I'll eat a slice on a hamburger and that's about it.
