Green Tomato Relish - Mom's Best (Piccalilli) image

My mother's house was the only place I could find a jar handy of this tastefully different relish. Once you try it you might wonder why this stuff isn't marketed? Its not your everyday flavor and sits especially well upon bar-b-qued brats, burgers, or hot dogs. In my opinion chicken salad is much better tasting with this...
