Soul food = slave food. Just call it what it is

[calixprynce]

Nah I got to do more to the mustards compared to the collards. Collards just need some hot sauce and we straight, got to put vinegar, onion, hot sauce and cornbread in the mustards.

mustards just need chili flakes and hot sauce .

cornbread in the greens tho? vinegar?

Is that why southern whites eat the same type of food?

Soul Food and "Southern Food" aint the same lol.

Like yeah, but no.

 

[Originalman]

Wrong!!!!! The meat is literally the only "Slave" food everything else is fine. Collard greens, sweet potato pie, baked mac and cheese, mash potatos, cornbread etc are not original Slave foods.

Kats don't know that black folks in Africa eat greens and sweet potatoes.

Same here, breh.

Some of them were like, "You don't eat chitlins/pig feet/souse/black eyed peas/peach cobbler?!?! " like it was against the law. I don't even like hot sauce. Guess my black card is revoked

Breh I told em, I would come outta pocket to get the dinner put together, but it meant I wasn't making that calorie-bomb shyt they wanna eat. I had a damn fruit salad recipe, wanted to make a
london broil instead of ham, sauteed salmon and make mashed potatoes from scratch with REAL potatoes, creme fraiche, all that. Easily a $200 grocery bill and we wouldn't even have leftovers.

They passed to cook a basic ass turkey and all the other shyt. Don't have to tell you that I was throwing out leftovers by the pound a week later.

Soul food is called soul food because it's made with love.

LOL u just named some basic ass dishes yourself. sounds like its a problem w ur family. stop tryin to put this on all black people.

Folks also don't know white folks in the deep south and rural areas eat greens, sweet potatoes, corn bread, pigs feet, pig ears and etc.

I went to a PWI in the south and for dinner in the cafeteria they served corn bread (real corn bread and not jiffy mix) and collard greens with meals.

:rocky:Who said anything about all black people? I specifically mentioned my family.:rocky:They LOVE soulfood, I don't, hence my posts.

And I don't care if the meals are basic, its about switching things up and not falling asleep at noon cause of turkey and pork overload. Whole family be

napping with the meat-sweats

mustard greens >>>> collard greens

 

[David_TheMan]

collard greens > turnip greens > mustard greens

 

[Sauce Dab]

Cacs exposing themselves again. It's southern food not slave food

And at the "I only eat fried chicken not everything else " comments. It's not like that's any healthier

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

I eat nothing named in the OP. Always looked at it as a southern thing
