Just a few words—sweet tea and fried-anything-that-can-possibly-be-fried tend to supersize some Southerners. Not all of us, but apparently lots of us!

We visited Tennessee a while back and my husband ordered the veggie platter. We thought they’d made a mistake when the plate was covered with little brown balls. We discovered it was was cauliflower, broccoli, mushrooms, etc. — each piece rolled in batter and deep fried. We were hysterical! It was so funny. Not healthy, but funny.
