Chicago is in the South?

Chicago is in the South?

Chicago has a large population of blacks who are one to three generations removed from the mid-South, especially the Mississippi Delta. It's no different than Polish Americans favoring pierogis or Jewish Americans bagels, except that African American food preferences did not originate from ancestors who came from overseas 90-130 years ago.

LADY J, are you sure you meant to send your posting to me? Suggest you re-read my postings. I have made no mention of Chicago nor suggested that it is in the south. I am from Texas, God Bless Texas...
