Most have no idea that it is considered "soul food" in the rest of the world  I think I am the only person here who does not know how to fry chicken...frying wasn't popular in Connecticut when I was young. Oh, did you know that years ago, they served grits at McDonalds here!!! It was discussed a couple of times on one of the local news stations. |
Yea. I've always considered soul food as southern cooking. I think that's where it originated from. Lol....yea it took me SOME TIME to master fried chicken....the blood would always rise to the top & then turn black. It made the chicken look less appetizing.
& wow! I never knew Mickey D's sold GRITS!!! (Personally I can't stand it) but wow.....sheesh....you learn somethin new everyday.
