They knew about grits but boiled peanuts and southern style BBQ were a surprise...

OMG... I'd almost forgotten those: boiled peanuts! My folks used to drag my brother, sister, and I from Miami up to North Carolina (Fontana) every year when we were kids to spend a couple weeks in the woods. People had these big cauldrons by the side of the road filled with green peanuts (I'd rather not speculate why they were green).
