That is exactly what learning what chitlins are (just looked it up) made me think of! Although I read about the journals in “Undaunted Courage”. Intestines are only for life and death starvation situations!

“When you’re talking about a white community, it can be a little boutique, because white people don’t eat the way we do.”

They use utensils?

Some people will never be happy. They just want to complain.

Where I live, developers have moved into a poor section of town and have begun building new houses. The residents there are irate! The value of the homes have gone up!

Imagine being upset because your neighborhood has improved and the value of your house has gone up.

I’m tired of all the complaining.

Beet greens are soul food? I didn’t know that.

I love beet greens, especially when you get some tiny tiny beets in them. You have to be careful though, beet greens and spinach are high in oxalic acid.

The market isn’t there to support it.

It is imperative for this community to have concessions dealing in the secondary and tertiary markets for EBT cards.

I’m sick and tired of that subset of people who go out of their way to segregate themselves from white society and then complain because people think they are different.

‘White people don’t eat the way we do’. God, I’d have loved it if some white person got up and said, “What are you talking about? We like watermelon and fried chicken too!”

And then watch heads explode.

Or as they used to call it....”Ernge”. Heavy emphasis on the Er.

Greens and a lot of the other southern foods that were close to soul food were fine, other than the huge amount of lard in everything.

That did give me indigestion, even with a 22 year old's digestive system of a coyote. Just could not deal with all that grease.

Mexican food never bothered me, though they use lard as well. Maybe cause I grew up with it?

What is the issue with oxalic acid?

I would love to have access to mustard, horseradish. beet, etc. greens to try and cook them the way my grandmother did for me once she found out how much I enjoyed them.

Ah, the bite of mustard or horseradish greens and a touch of bacon!

Oxalic acid blocks absorption of iron. I disagree with including spinach in the list as it has very little if any oxalic acid...thus it’s desirability as a great food source for iron!(Remember Pop-eye anyone?)

That “bite” you talk about is the oxalic acid itself!

This would be embarrassing to anyone with any sense of self respect. What they are saying is that whitey is mucking up their glorious hood. They think and sound like the Klan.

You realize, don’t you, that you will not find a person of any color south of the Mason Dixon who calls them ‘chitterlings’.
