“Stay away from Cracker Barrels. Bland, soulless food with a tacky tourist trap on your way out.”

You have gone too far this time. Leave Cracker Barrel alone. This is the kind of talk that will get you an Alabama azz kickin boy. Cracker Barrel is off limits. I am petitioning the moderator to have your seditious comment removed forthwith. You can just take your Yankee azz back up to Boston and eat some beans.

Now I’m sitting back down to finish my deelishus Cracker Barrel fried Catfish dinner with a side of fried Okra and green beans with bisquit and sweet tea. Then I’m going out and browse the gift shop full of interesting down home items on my way out. :-)

I love the Deep South but sorry, the Cracker Barrel just leaves me cold. It even lacks the Southern hospitality I am accustomed to down there. And the "fried Okra" they serve there isn't what my grandmother made.

Now you mention Alabama and fried catfish in the same reply.

If you are familiar with the Guntersville area of Alabama, check out the Catfish Cabin on Route 431. I try to stop there every time I'm down that way. All you can eat catfish for very reasonable price, along with hush puppies and real Southern sweet tea.

That’s right girl you go. These uppity Yankees all come down here and talk smack. As for Waffle House I have no ideal how many of them I’ve thrown up behind. Than I go in and get me a waffle to hold down the rest of the white liquor. Most the time only place open at 3 AM.
