Lord have mercy. I felt that gravy one in my soul. I married a Yankee boy and his mama sent over some food after I had our second daughter. My husband came in the door loaded up with junk and had a look of fear on his face once I started unpacking everything. "I tried to tell her you don't cook with that stuff but she insisted I bring it home." Both gravy packets AND canned gravy. I about come unglued.
I have farm raised in laws who should know better use that stuff so gravy making is my job for holiday meals. Gravymaking is an art but it ain't rocket science.
I have a Stella *lol* When I bought her in the 80's the cashier tried to talk me out it "My daughter bought the same one. You can never get those seasoned." Long story short - Her daughter was scrubbing hers to death. Some how she knew how to season it, but failed on the maintenance of cast iron. You can clean cast iron just fine without scrubbing it to death.
I love regular tomatoes but as for okra the only way I'll eat okra is fried. Can't stand the gummy mess of boiled okra. Ugh! Dunk it in some batter and fry it and it's good eats.

If anyone can resist clicking the tongs, you are right to worry they're alien interlopers.
Don’t give that tea to the dogs! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I looooove your videos. Makes me miss home! I live in Utah now and one trip home, I went grocery shopping and when I came back and my mom said “I don’t know how y’all eat in Utah but it’s not how we eat here!” 😂
Beth Whitaker You did UTAH food shopping? Did Mom send you home with a Care package?
Sam I am cast iron skillet and cornbread mix 😂
Lol, I'm a southern transplant to utah also! It's so hard to get god food here!!
As a Texan, that beans in chili line hit me hard!
“From who, your great aunt Publix?” So freakin southern 😭
Lord have mercy. I felt that gravy one in my soul. I married a Yankee boy and his mama sent over some food after I had our second daughter. My husband came in the door loaded up with junk and had a look of fear on his face once I started unpacking everything. "I tried to tell her you don't cook with that stuff but she insisted I bring it home." Both gravy packets AND canned gravy. I about come unglued.
I have farm raised in laws who should know better use that stuff so gravy making is my job for holiday meals. Gravymaking is an art but it ain't rocket science.
I love that line, "Sugar belongs in tea, not cornbread." So true.
Gasp! Sugar belongs in everything. Have you not heard of Mary Poppins?
Did he say banana pudding with a fork? Try the serving spoon. My husband can explain.
“Have you ever deep fried... a deep fryer?”
Lol XD
That’s right! No sugar in cornbread!! That is cake! Lol
But there's sugar in bread
@@kaldogorath cornbread is not bread and not cake! Bless your hearts
I have a Stella *lol*
When I bought her in the 80's the cashier tried to talk me out it "My daughter bought the same one. You can never get those seasoned." Long story short - Her daughter was scrubbing hers to death. Some how she knew how to season it, but failed on the maintenance of cast iron.
You can clean cast iron just fine without scrubbing it to death.
Not gonna lie, the only tomatoes I eat are fried green ones. Like they're SO GOOD
I had them twice! So yummys
I love regular tomatoes but as for okra the only way I'll eat okra is fried. Can't stand the gummy mess of boiled okra. Ugh! Dunk it in some batter and fry it and it's good eats.
Juliet, same!
I eat two types of tomatoes: pasta sauce and pizza sauce!
@@nanoflower1 I don't think that I've ever had okra
Y'all make my day! Much love from Ohio💚
I already started dying at “mac and cheese is a vegetable” 😂 5 seconds in oh my goooddddd I wont survive this video. Too relatable xD
“You gotta taste it first. It’s called quality assurance.” Yep yep yep.
“Your great aunt Publix?”
SO TRUE
"The drinking bourbon is on top of the refrigerator" that hit home. But I was born and raised and still live in south Louisiana so it checks out.
11th Kitchen Commandment : Thou shalt not use any mayo other than Duke’s.
Duke's is not as good as it use to be. Did they change it or something?
Except if you're from New Orleans.....Blue Plate is the mayo of choice there. Lol
Got to be Bama mayo.
I know it’s technically not mayo but tastes so much better, MIRACLE WHIP!!!😋😋😋
Someone got ice tea--from the store?!! Bless their heart. ;-)
Well....only if it's Milo's. Anything else is sacrilege.
My family feels called out😂
Y’all really are killin’ me with these videos.
If a fork is all you have it is perfectly acceptable to eat nanner puddin with it.
Sacrilege! Repent!
No it ain't
Naw.... just use your index and middle fingers
When you make southerners giggle.
Southerners: 🤣😂😆😅 you aint right. _slaps knee_
What’s this wafers only on the bottom or top? Both!
And in the middle. Like lasagna, you build up the layers, then the custard all over. Let it soak in.
And the sides
Dodi Tov you get it!
@@DodiTov absolutely
@@eileenwelter90 Dodi is a Southerner. They know the right way to make banana pudding.
Oh, LORD! This one really did it. I am so danged homesick now...
Most important question in the South: who made the tea?
Right up there with "who made the potato salad?"
and it will determine whether you are stayin or goin.
Love it , Great Aunt Publix
