| Another okra hater here. My hubby likes pickled okra so I buy it for him though. My mom likes (gasp) okra and tomatoes! Ick! I can't even handle the smell. A few times my grandma got us confused and she made ME okra and tomatoes.  I couldn't even eat them to spare my grandmother's feelings.

Okra is looks sort of like a fuzzy gray-green pepper. It's a veggie loved by many southerners. If you cook it any way other than frying it is really slimy. Here's the wikipedia link-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okra They look really green in the pictures but that's because they're still raw.

If so, I dare you to try it. You can't NOT like something just cause someone else doesn't. If that were the case, you would have to LIKE it just cause other people do.  Gee maybe we can ship a crate of okra to Vicky after she has Amelia.  | |

Where are you from? You simply can not be from NY and like okra! I just can't accept that!

| I like it breaded like at Cracker Barrel, but it's best hard fried the way my mom makes it. So it's crunchy. Of course I'm a southern girl from TN.
