| Fruit stand in Positano, Italy. |
On Tuesday, after visiting Pompeii, we drove along the beautiful Amalfi Coast which must surely be one of the most beautiful coasts in the world. (Photos of that later.) Near the small town of Positano we stopped at a little roadside market.. Many of the products we encountered were similar to ones we might find at the NC State Farmers Market. Others were quite different.
 |
| These small tomatoes resemble ones you might get at Harris Teeter, but they taste oh so much better. | | |
|
 |
| Locally grown lemons. |
|
|
|
The Amalfi Coast has the perfect climate for growing lemons and lemons are a major crop of the area. The trees produce from four to five crops a year. And in addition to fresh lemons, many lemon products are sold here.
 |
| Colorful hot peppers. | | |
|
|
Although there are lots of peppers sold in the market, we haven't found the food particularly spicy.
The most interesting products sold at this market were the Viagra peppers and the olive oil infused with the Viagra peppers. Do these products have the same effect as Viagra?

| Olive oil infused with Viagra peppers. |
Did I see some of my colleagues preparing to test this product????
