A BLT is a type of sandwich, named for the initials of its primary ingredients, bacon, lettuce and tomato. It can be made with varying recipes according to personal preference. Simple variants include using different types of lettuce, toasting or not, or adding mayonnaise. More pronounced variants can include using turkey bacon or tofu in place of bacon, or removing the lettuce entirely.

"My" rules are very simple, fresh white bread, butter, and a big ole tomato (BeefSteak if can be found) and just get after it. As a kid growing up, just took a salt shaker to the garden and feasted!!!!

SPC Douglas Bolton - All of that, and chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits too. I grew up in depression era farm and we grew or raised about ALL we ate. We butchered as a family 4 - 5 hogs and 2 -3 steers or heifers every year. Home made sausage links in natures casings cannot be beat. I can still see my aunt making links from the sausage machine.

As did I.
I grew up in a city in PA, and more than half of our back yard was a vegetable garden. I know this because I turned the soil for it. Every year; two shovel blades deep. And once it started producing, before I headed out to the 'Victory Garden' (what my grandfather it), I would reach inside his porch's storage shed, just inside the door, and grabbed his little set of salt and pepper shakers to take them with me.
Onions, beans, pickling cucumbers, and zucchini and tomatoes. Beefsteak, big boys, and little cherry ones. Pick them, lick the outside of the tomatoes a little, lightly sprinkle them, and enjoy nature's bounty. Yum!
Memories of times past. Can't do that any more; but, I can still look and appreciate the efforts of others.
Thanks for sharing. Have a great day!
