I haven't seen that in ages. I lent my VHS copy to a coworker years ago, not knowing that he was member of a very strict religious group. Never saw it again.

That is actually delicious.
I've tried grits, accidentally, in South Carolina. The waitress told me my side options, three times and I could NOT understand her southern drawl. I got it and felt sick and it was gross. And I hate raw oysters & sardines but love sushi! So I don't hate all weird stuff. LOLOLOLOL I guess I'm too much of a northern girl cuz those grits taste NOTHING like mash potatoes too me!! And okra..eeewwww, yuck.LOL!! Actually, grits is really just like cream of wheat, a bit like oatmeal that tastes like mashed potatoes. It's very bland... so people put things on it to eat it, butter salt and pepper, tobasco, etc. It's one of the 'unique' southern US foods
Okra IS slimy... and an acquired taste... some foods have to be eaten often enough to acquire the taste or they are just shockingly nasty. Eggplant, sushi, caviar, raw oysters, steamers, sardines, anchovy, liver, and at a young age, tomatoes... all fit into that category. But once used to them, they are all obsession/craving foods
Grits isn't really... if you like mashed potatoes or cream of wheat, or rice, you learn to like grits real quick
Green eggs... years ago, I had a few auracana chickens. They are small native south american chickens that lay easter colored eggs, mostly green. I had 5 of em, and each one laid a different color... 2 green, blue, pink with purple spots, pale apricot eggs. They didn't lay every day in the season, but the eggs were stunningly beautiful pastel colors. Then I moved into a subdivision that didn't allow chicken pets

Evil, simply evil. Good thing I'm already in or I may have had second thoughts on my ProVari, or at least letting anyone know I got one.

Ok, now this is bad too! I know I'd starve in the Deep South for sure. Unless I could have BBQ everyday. {shudder}
Ok, thx for the tip but I kinda gagged a little reading this...slime floats to the top..I think I'd try it again, already cooked and fried. If I saw the slime floating, I'm toast
Ohhh... no no no... there are MUCH grosser southern specialties than those mentioned!!!

Heeheheehehe I could only imagine.
There's a way to make okra taste better & not slimy at all. After you soak it in water with a lid on (so you don't see the slime), throw away the entire bowl & order pizza.
Calf fries, fried okra, poke sallet with ham bone, steamed romanesco., peach cobbler.
Boil crawfish, red taters, corn, collard greens, pecan pie.
Fried catfish, fried green tomato's, boiled cabbage, dew berry cobbler.
Dang, I made myself hungry.

I'll never pass up a good pizza, but where I use okra is in Gumbo. Throw it in after your chicken and sausage and it thickens the chicken broth base, not to mention it doesn't even look like okra once the whole thing is done. I use shrimp along with the chicken and sausage, lots of onion, green pepper, cajun seasoning, and I mix the rice straight in which makes it more of a gumbo/jambalaya hybrid.
You and me both, and do you know how freakin hard it is to find green tomatoes this time of year???
now this you have to try before you put it down.
Haggis is a savoury pudding containing sheep's pluck (heart, liver and lungs); minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally encased in the animal's stomach and simmered for approximately three hours. Most modern commercial haggis is prepared in a sausage casing rather than an actual stomach.

LOL!!! I'm pretty adventurous with foods, and will try almost anything once so long as it... doesn't look at me (NO eating eyeballs!!!), smell bad, or is trying to crawl away...
Oh. It's dinnertime!
Oh. It's dinnertime!
Are you thinking of those most infamous things called fried pork intestines?
THIS was what I was thinking but didn't want to go there cuz...YUCK!!!!
WTH????? Are you kidding me right now? I can not even think about trying this...no way, no how, no thanks! Now Stromfinch, I love gumbo and I just pick out the okra.
How do you peeps eat this stuff? I'll take the calling up the pizza route and they deliver!
I stand corrected. I'll have to add 12 more things to my list of why I don't like Texans.

At least haggis isn't southern, it's Scottish. As an Irishman, I'm allowed to dislike the Scots without giving a reason. It's our heritage
We drink, hate Scots & blow things up. Not always in that order.
Following my code for trying anything once, I've tried Haggis..followed by half a pint of Guinness! It was really good.. The stout that is (because Guinness is not beer!).
Speaking of Guinness, I make a really good Beef and Guinness stew too!! It's been a while since I've cooked up a pot of that..
