You just buy it out of the back of a pickup truck at the intersection of a backroad an a highway like everyone else silly.

[u/BroadBrazosAvon95 → u/Marquee_Ditchwriggle]

I love how this is a universal constant in America, the only difference in what you buy is where you are in the country. In the south it’s either boiled peanuts or fruit. In the Midwest it’s corn. But every rural county has that one setup at a four way stop in the middle of nowhere that has the best food

[u/MoscowMitchMcKremIin → u/BroadBrazosAvon95]

Hell there's a guy in my town that just sits at the entrance of the village to sell his home made honey

[u/ElkBusiness8446 → u/MoscowMitchMcKremIin]

In Ohio it's honey, eggs, and sometimes produce. Mostly honey and eggs.

[u/deepsouthsloth → u/ElkBusiness8446]

There's a guy right down the road from my neighborhood that has a handpainted sign permanently in his front yard that says local honey, yard eggs, collard greens, strawberries, watermelon, and beans. He has little planks to cover the ones that he's out of/out of season.

[u/Simping4Sumi → u/BroadBrazosAvon95]

As someone who lives in Texas, I'm surprised you didn't mention Tamales.

[u/PiggStyTH → u/BroadBrazosAvon95]

Midwest has watermelon and pumpkins too

[u/stups317 → u/PiggStyTH]

In Michigan you can get cherries during the summer.

[u/Schmidtty29 → u/BroadBrazosAvon95]

And if you truly stretch the definitions. NYC has hot dogs.

[u/TrixieLurker → u/BroadBrazosAvon95]

Eggs. So many of the small farms around me sell eggs. Many of the stands are unmanned, you just go up, put in a few bucks in and take the carton of eggs.

[u/SusannaG1 → u/TrixieLurker]

Here it's fruit, preserved fruit, boiled peanuts, and probably fireworks. (We have extremely liberal fireworks laws here in SC.)

[u/TrixieLurker → u/SusannaG1]

I feel you on the fireworks bit, they are legal here in Wisconsin and I live near the border with states where it is not legal, so in summer it be a booming business!

[u/Fritzkreig → u/BroadBrazosAvon95]

We are definitely in corn country, on the Ohio and Wabash though watermelon grows great in the sandy soil and I am not sure which I would prefer to be honest‽

[u/Round-Asparagus5337 → u/BroadBrazosAvon95]

Central Valley in California is best for this.  

[u/ElDeguello66 → u/Marquee_Ditchwriggle]

Last time I did a transaction at a rural intersection the devil got my soul and all I got was this 12 inch pianist, not falling for that again

[u/Marquee_Ditchwriggle → u/ElDeguello66]

As long as they are good at tickling your ivories I think you did fine 

[u/FrenchFreedom888 → u/Marquee_Ditchwriggle]

I'm sorry, but if I buy corn out the back of a pickup truck at the intersection of a back road on a highway, that's going to be some Oklahoman goddamn corn

[u/Osiris32 → u/Marquee_Ditchwriggle]

But that gets me Willamette Valley corn!

[u/jmt85 → u/Marquee_Ditchwriggle]

Chino, Ca corn it is for me
