from the Georgia Club What do you think of when someone mentions Kuduz, Vadialia Onions, or how about... Boiled Peanuts??? Well for most of us here in Georgia we think of, what else but... 'Georgia'. These items and more are what I call 'Georgia Icons'. Of course a lot of these things are not exclusive to Georgia, but most of them are certainly associated with this fine state. The Vidalia Onion The Vidalia Onion More about the Vidalia Onion And even more about the Vidalia Onion recipes Vidalia Onion Recipes And more recipes Kudzu Jeff Foxworthy has a saying: "Did you ever cut your grass and find a car?" With Kudzu, you might find a whole house underneath all the broad leaves and thick vines! It covers everything; trees, telephone poles, cars and trucks and tractors, houses and barns and sheds, and anything that gets in the way of its fast, expanding growth! Once in place, it is almost impossible to get rid of, and resists almost all efforts to that end. Imported from Asia as an answer to erosion, it certainly does that well. Unfortunately, once started, it starts covering everything. It is impossible to drive down hardly any Georgia Road, without encountering great patches, if not whole fields, of it! It is so robust that Callaway Gardens keeps an example growing in a pot near one of their greenhouses. It's the only way to control its phenomenal growth.
