Frog Legs and 'maters

Last night I had fried frog legs, fried green tomatoes, and catfish for dinner. It was my first time to try frog legs or fried green tomatoes. I have no idea why I wanted to try frog legs, or why they were offered at the restaurant that we went to last night, but regardless, I did try them.

It didn't taste much different than chicken, but it was much more tough. As I was sitting there chewing on some frog's hind end, I realized that at some point someone had to be hungry enough to grab a frog and go about trying to cook it. I had a nice chuckle to myself picturing some country bumpkin with overalls and toe holes in his socks cooking a frog.

After the frog legs, we had fried green tomatoes with some kind of red sauce. These were suprisingly good, as I don't really like tomatoes, unless they're in the form of some kind of sauce. Even then, I don't really like too much sauce in pasta, or on pizza. The Katie wasn't really all that impressed with the FGT's, or with Zach's (the restaurant that served the legs and maters).

I don't think I could have had a more "country" dinner last night, unless of course there was gravy on the frog legs.
