Didn't read thru all the responses so someone may have brought it up ... whatever happened to turnips? Thought they would have a been a staple of diet in that era.

Oh yeah...turnips and collards out the kazooo. Turnip juice is called 'Pot Liquor' and is excellent when eaten with corn bread and a glass of sweet milk. In my youth, that was dinner many nights.
