The movie you’re thinking of with Dolly and Julia Roberts is Steel Magnolias! Savory grits, deviled eggs and boiled peanuts are just a few of the foods you must try in the South. The old saying “there’s more than one way to skin a cat” definitely applies to food in the south. Even the simplest of things, like boiled 🥜 peanuts , can be changed up by the extra seasonings, boil time, etc. Everyone likes to put their own spin on recipes, unless it’s a cherished family recipe that’s been passed down… then you strictly stick to the recipe in that situation lol. And funny story about the Spanish Moss trees that he mentioned… I grew up in a very small country town, so you learned to be creative, use the resources around you and make things you wanted, that weren’t considered a necessity. Halloween costumes always fell into that category lol. One year we decided to go gather up a bunch moss from the trees around the swamp. We glued it all over our old play clothes and mom’s shower hats, painted our hands, feet and face green and Boom 💥 we were Swamp Thing. The costumes actually looked really cool, but there was one major downfall… we were itching and scratching the whole time from the chiggers. After being hosed down and scrubbed off in the yard, mom made us camp outside for a few nights so we didn’t bring them in the house. 😂 Good ol Southern living ❤

There are open shelled oysters and fried oysters. Fried oysters are delicious (breaded). They have a sweet fresh taste of the sea taste. Hominy grits come from a large kernel type of corn. It 's similar to polenta but white. It's not the same as regular white or yellow, or blue corn....yes, there are different colors of corn.

[@revtoyota]

Gaynor, to a point I agree with you on grits. The thing with grits is they are either trash or god tier there is no middle ground with them. If you get a chance give them another try but ask the staff how they like them and what they put on them first. Some places have great food but horrible grits.

After trying them, I decided they were good on occasion, at least when with friends who love them. The two of you are really good working together on these reactions. The whole team is good, but your vibe alone works well too. As a northerner, it took me a minute to understand grits. They are not like any kind of porridge. They have a unique consistency. Now, to my southern sisters and brothers, I have learned to appreciate them, just not by themselves. I do enjoy cheesy grits, and other flavored grits. I will have to try shrimp and grits sometimes.

I'm from Michigan, the north, but I was in Alabama for 2 years and it was a big culture shock. Most people are nice unless they're on meth, then they might try to rob you, but the real danger is their sweet tea...their sweet tea is trying to kill you. I was in the hospital for a bit while I was there (great hospital system in Huntsville, AL) and every day they'd give me sweet tea and it blew my mind that in a hospital they'd try to make me drink a glass of liquid with 3 cups of sugar in it. I was there in 2017 and they had a day where it got down to 17 degrees (which in Michigan is pretty much half the year) and they city freaked out. That day the I was in Madison, AL and the city shut down. I was the only car on the road that day, laughing my ass off while people looked out their windows at me like I was a maniac. I was king for a day.

[@anndeecosita3586]

These are in general not that everyone does it. Most Southerners call them buggies. Actually having lived in different regions, I have never heard anyone say grocery cart, only shopping cart. I guess because they are commonly used in more than just grocery stores.

Mark 10:46. Tea! It took me a long time to acquire a taste for "Unsweetened Tea"! (Huh? It began as "Sweet Tea" until the sweetness was removed from it? Just call it "Tea"!) As a Type 2 Diabetic, if they don't have "Splenda" or "Zero Sugar" options for "Sweet Tea", I get the Tea, except when they make it in the same urn or pot that they make Coffee in! Blech! 🤢🤮 "Diet" soda pops are an option that I also had to get used to that took a while! To get beyond only tasting the artificial sweetener and to taste the intended flavor. I was patient enough to endure that, unlike my best friend. But anyway, "Diet" is meant for those trying to avoid Obesity and/or Type 2 Diabetes in the first place! But over doing it can lead to Type 1! Then you're back to regular soda pops, unless you just call it quits and drink water only, like some I know. 😁

I only disagree with the being on time part. A few people in my family were military and they always taught the rest of us to be punctual. I'm under the mindset that if you are on time you are 5 minutes late. I think most people in the South would consider lateness to be quite rude.

Thumb Up #921! 👍 You're welcome! Thanks! 😊 Notes: Heh. I don't know if it is now, but back in the late 1960s and early 1970s, whenever my alcoholic paternal grandfather had to drive through Noble, Oklahoma, to get to Norman, Oklahoma to see one of Grandma's relatives, he grumbled openly about Noble being a dry town, and he was afraid that they would arrest him if he wasn't on his best behavior as he drove through it. He was visibly relaxed once we left their town limits! This isn't my first time seeing that video. But I've just realized that his wife kept her looks while he lost his, so that probably means looks don't matter to her. Hmm. 🤔 CSA Civil War Monuments and CSA Flags! He failed to mention them! Sure, some have been removed by now. But you might still see them. "Six Flags Over Texas" recognizes that one of them is the "Stars & Bars" as does the tourist center at the Stateline. But I was startled to see a lonely CSA Battle Flag, flying alone near a beach when we went to Galveston one day. It was to mark a lonely grave where one soldier was buried. It made me wonder why he was buried alone and not with any others. Since the flag pole is so tall, that's probably what draws your attention to the grave in the first place. Otherwise, it might pass for a tiny sand dune. Okay! That settles it! Despite hearing thunder outside, I'm leaving the house to go find Breakfast!

[@jimmiegiboney2473]

@garythornbury9793 hey! Before I was of school age, we lived in San Antonio. My younger brother now lives in The Colony. But anyway, I have to inform people that Oklahoma didn't yet exist during the Civil War, so how could we be on anyone's side. We don't have any monuments like that that I'm aware of as there would be no need for them. Heck, come to think of it, I have never seen any battlefield cemeteries in person in Oklahoma. If any exist, they might be about the wars with our tribes? 🤔 It has been a while since I was able to see the show, "Discover Oklahoma". The only CSA flags that I've seen in use up here were flown by Caucasians in protest against whatever they were protesting. One day, as I was leaving to go pick up a gal, there were two guys passing by the mailboxes looking like they were about to pass out. I got the mail, and I offered some help to them. Long story short, they lived in another town, so I took them there. Their destination was a two-tone brown, single-wide mobile home, next to the burnt ruins of an old motel. I was startled to see a CSA Battle Flag, with frayed edges, on the motel's flag pole. The last time I was there, the place still smelled like fresh ashes. No flags. Seeing the flag made me think of "Gone With The Wind" and of the flag reveal scene in it. I also thought about how it looked like someone was playing and used the ruins as their fort. But their side lost. Or they were pretending that the ruins were Union and they had claimed it. I don't know. I seem to be the only one who played "Guns" or "War" in the early 1970s. No one wanted to be on the losing side, though, so we just pretended to shoot at imaginary foes that had us surrounded, whatever they were! Now, in a more prominent display, I've seen CSA Battle Flags modified with words placed on them and usually around the silhouette of an M-16. But not since the pandemic. I've seen an Alabama trucker at one of our two local truck stops, with a cap that had a CSA BF emblem patch on it, and it matched his chained wallet. He was rude to the other customers, in the manner of "Hey, I'm only joking with you!" as if that would keep him out of trouble. I saw another guy who resembled that one, show up at the scrap metal place. He didn't see anyone that didn't look like him, so he wasn't rude. The gist is that we do have rude people up here, but they are the opposite of what you described. Go figure.

Steel Magnolias is the movie you are describing.

Boiled peanuts they throw them in with the shells still on, in salty water and sometimes other spices are thrown in then boil them until the entire peanuts, shell and all is soft. Peanuts are not an actual nut, they are a legume, just like peas and beans.

04:09 Even people from other regions of the US often screw up their faces when they hear "boiled peanuts." I've surmised over the years that they think someone's taken already roasted peanuts and boiled them (which indeed would be gross.) The important factor is that boiled peanuts are made from "raw" peanuts that have reached full size, but not fully matured (dried out). Once prepared properly, they are salty (sometimes spicy) and lovely. When I was a kid, on long car journeys in Georgia in the '70s, before every few freeway exits, you'd see a hand-lettered sign on plywood reading "Boiled Peanuts: next exit." They were, and are essential road travel food, and completely addictive. Always buy more than you think you'll need, if you get the chance. I'd link to a recipe/boiling instructions, but the thing is, like Italian food, boiled peanuts are all about the quality of the produce, not the cooking technique. You need the correct "green" peanuts from certain areas/farms in The South, during certain times of year, for the best experience. On our way to my Granddad's, (Douglas, GA) in the summer, there was one farm that had a roadside stand we would stop at, buy a big bag of pre-cooked goober peas, and also a huge bag of raw, green uncooked peanuts for cooking once we got back home. Also some fried pork skins, crackling, and maybe some fresh peaches and stuff. If you all came over and took a road trip down South, you'd realise there's a reason they are referred to as "Country Caviar." Probably the most moreish food I've ever encountered in my life. Love to see a video of that!!

[@lumina1104]

There's nothing wrong with chewing up an oyster. There are also many ways to prepare them. For instance, they can be fried, grilled, poached, raw, roasted, steamed, etc. The best oysters come from estuaries and the areas close to such. It's a combination of the salt water they live in and the flora that enters the water from the land. Oysters just filter the water and whatever is present in the water defines their flavor. I come from an area where both wild and farmed oysters are common. They are expensive in restaurants, but most of the people around here will just buy them by the bushel. I get them for about $65/bushel and that's enough to easily fill 2 or 3 people. So, the price isn't that bad. Granted, it's one of those 'who you know' situations. The same bushel could cost someone who isn't close to the person who gathers the oysters +$80. People can also take their own boat out and gather a bushel a day, without a license. Anyone gathering more has to have a commercial license.

Mark 16:38. Say what now? Sure, when people say "Hominy Grits" but otherwise, I thought they were ground corn! 🤔 That's odd! Intact Hominy doesn't appeal to me! Hmm. Ahem. Okay... Quote One - Grits are made from ground corn, typically from less sweet, starchy varieties often referred to as dent corn. Grits can be made from either yellow or white corn and are often labeled accordingly. June 25, 2021. Quote Two - Are grits made from corn or hominy? Grits are a type of porridge made from boiled cornmeal. Hominy grits are a type of grits made from hominy - corn that has been treated with an alkali in a process called nixtamalization, with the pericarp (ovary wall) removed. Grits are often served with flavorings as a breakfast dish. End quote! Aha! Those pictures on can labels of "White Hominy" don't make them look like Corn at all!

Southern U.S. has a lot in common with Britain. It was mostly settled by British aristocracy, land and slave owners. Its partly where we get our accent. So much of our "southern hospitality" and adherence to manners come from British etiquette.

I’m from North Carolina and you want to visit some beautiful beaches. This is the state to go to. I’m my opinion NC has the best beaches on the east coast, excluding southern Florida. I’m talking about the actual beach, the water is so beautiful. The water is warm during the summer, so you can actually swim in it. I’m specifically from the Wilmington/Wrightsville beach area. It’s a beautiful little city, so if you want to experience the beach life, I recommend eastern NC.

The Florida panhandle has better beaches

Florida gulf coast beaches are the best, been going there for 40 years, never seen a single shark attack. Those occur more on the eastern side of the state (Atlantic ocean). The water is crystal clear and warm and the sand is as white as snow.

I'm a southerner! I've lived in south Georgia and in the Florida panhandle but my hometown and where I live now is Nashville Tennessee. I disagree with Wolter on a few things. First, rarely do you see someone correct someone else's child in public. Also he's wrong about tea. Restaurants have both sweet and unsweet tea available many of them also have flavored teas that you can get. But it most restaurants you can also order hot tea and they will bring you tea bags and a small teapot with water and you can prepare it at your table. The only exception to that is usually fast food restaurants Many people request their tea served with no ice. If you're eating in at a fast-food place you can make your own tea from the beverage bar and put the ice or leave the iced out it's up to you. But nobody's going to force you to drink tea with ice in it. Usually they prepare the tea and it is hot when they prepare it and then they'll put the large containers in a walk-in coolerr and let them cool down a little bit but if you're filling your own to go cup I. A fast food place, it's usually room temperature. You have an ice machine there if you want ice I drink both hot and iced but rarely hot tea in the summer. Like Wolter said it is so hot here in the July & August you will want a cool drink!

[@billhilly9426]

That's different from Texas. Noooobody gets warm tea. Ice is not optional lol. I don't care if it's 20 degrees outside I need my ice.

[@JustMe-dc6ks]

Even some fast food restaurants will give you a cup of boiled water and a tea bag if you want hot tea.

[@anndeecosita3586]

@@billhilly9426 Having lived on the Gulf Coast I can’t think of one time I have seen someone order hot tea in a restaurant. And no one in my family even owns a kettle. Unless we are sick, my relatives only drink cold tea we make either in a pot on the stove or in a glass jar out in the sun.

[@stellaandes759]

My mom (from southern Illinois) told me that when she was a teenager they called soda "Coke" and when they went to watch movies, they just said they were going to the show. Before I joined the church I belong to now, I used to love iced tea. I don't like grits either, maybe because I detest hominy. In North Carolina when I had our third child, they gave us the menu so we could choose what we wanted. Though I never checked the grits box, I got grits every meal.

Boiled peanuts are peanuts that have been boiled. You eat them by putting them in your mouth. :-)

The literal definition of sweet tea is unsweetened tea with sugar added to it.

[@awesomeness612]

He's saying if they give you unsweetened tea and offer sugar packets it will not be the same as tea intended to be sweet because when you add sugar to tea that isn't still hot it will not dissolve

[@jimmiegiboney2473]

Mark 8:41. Oh, I hate it when people anywhere on the planet use a trademark or brand name as a generic term! 🤬 But anyway, "Coca-Cola is Coke", and they paid for that in more ways than one! Besides, now the question actually makes sense since there are more "Coke" options to choose from! 🙄

[@NannerBrams]

I wouldn't consider Miami as the South though. It seems to be a Northern exclave from like Ocala and everything South of that. Northern Florida, the panhandle, and the Big Bend area are the truly Southern areas of Florida that have more in common with Alabama or Georgia than the Central and Southern part of their own state. It's an entirely different world and it's a night and day difference

I'm actually not entirely sure myself what boiled peanuts are, but you put them in your Coke; you take a drink, you get a mouthful of the peanuts too (I feel like this should be common knowledge, but for anyone who's never tried it & does, be careful when you take the drink/peanut combo so you don't choke on the peanuts). 🥜 Well, some people won't judge you if your kids are being unruly, but most will; I try not to. Last month I saw a woman grocery shopping with her 3 kids & I could tell she was at the end of her wits by the way she was yelling at them (& yeah, one of the boys belched & didn't even say "sorry;" she didn't particularly like it, either). I didn't think of her as a bad parent, I just knew that it had been a long day (maybe even week) for her & I actually pitied her. Don't worry about it, Gaynor; believe it or not, lots of southerners don't like grits either. And yeah, I don't trust places that have square biscuits; biscuits are supposed to be round! ☹ Also, sure I've heard plenty of people call them "buggies," but I call them "carts." 🛒 If you do manage to come to the south & you decide to try biscuits & gravy, no place does it better than Hardee's (the only issue is they stop serving breakfast at 11 am, so, there might be a line). ⭐ If you manage to get to Louisiana, try the bananas foster & beignets; it's what they're known for. And yeah, there are plenty of dry counties; that doesn't mean that you can't get any alcohol at all, though (I myself live in one & it just means you can't buy alcoholic beverages on Sundays).
