answer:People I’ve known tend to think of them as an acquired taste. As to should you try the, sure, try it and see if you like it. If you’re really concerned just microwave till warm a slice of green tomato with a little salt and take a bite – it’ll end up something similar to that flavor-wise, but better. I like them and I make ‘em pretty simple. Heat olive oil over medium heat, and a little chopped garlic till fragrant, and just barely starting to brown. Remove garlic, increase heat, add thick sliced tomato (skinned if you prefer, salt and pepper to taste) until starting to brown on both sides (texture is up to you, if you want mushy don’t worry about browning, just lower the heat and cook longer). Remove tomato, top with fried garlic and eat or add optional munster (or other gooey cheese) an stick right under a hot broiler to melt. People often bread them with panko, put them on sandwiches, eat them with eggs, ham, hot sauce, the list goes on.
