Awwww-bergine.

Although we call them eggplants here in the U.S., you haven’t lived until you’ve heard a local farmer use its European name: “aubergine.” That Georgia accent makes it sound as delicious as the delicacies you can make with them.

Meatless Mondays. Or any day, really.

If you’re looking for a meaty, non-meat food option, the eggplant is a regional fave. Low in fat and packed with protein, fiber, B1, B6, folate, copper, manganese and potassium, it’ll be your new favorite carb-loader.
