Ground Cherries, Have you heard of them?

I stumbled across the delicious little tomato esc treats at my work the other day. They are called Ground Cherries, they remind me of a tiny sweeter version of a tomatillo. Their name comes from, the fact, when they are they fall to the ground.

They can be used in salsa or are a great addition to a fresh salad. If you run across any of these in your travels you definitely should give them a try
