In the autumn season, when I was petite, ma Popa would have a few days off from his assistant work to a Physical therapist at Charity Hospital. During his days off, I would spend a lot of time with him. He would prepare us meals while he enjoyed being with his child on his days off. One of the lunch meals he would prepare and had loving fondness, was grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup on the side. In this intense, ma popa is a typical New Orleans creole and his love of tomatoes is live on this play here. In the autumn my popa would commune a lot of tomatoes. Tomato soup with grill cheese for lunch. And when he is not eating tomato soup, he will drink tomato juice, which a constant beverage he'd have on hand. Mon Maman is pretty much the same. Her favorite snack she would prepare herself is a sandwich dressed with sliced tomatoes with cheese on top and place the sandwich in the boiler to melt the cheese. To her this sandwich is mouth wateringly good.

Why would my father consuming alot of tomatoes make him a typical creole?

One of the characteristics Americans would have a classify a creole a creole is the use of tomatoes in flavoring elements of most of our food. The variety of tomatoes that is sinomous with New Orleans is called by Americans as Creole Tomatoes. Ma Popa had a wide believe that consuming tomatoes, especially on a daily based is high beneficial for the body. Food and how we eat or drink it plays a heavy factor on how to take care of ourselves is an extremely creole behavior my father has. He was raised this way.
