Southern Cooking

The South is best known for their Southern cooking, including some collard greens. All Southern foods have been around since Abe Lincoln ended slavery for good and when African-Americans have earned the right to vote. What's so great about southern cooking is that everybody's eating a home-cooked meal, just like their moms used to make. There's lot of Southern foods we all love: there's fried and barbecue chicken, some collard greens, mac and cheese, candied yams, some corn bread, the works. When everybody's eating the food from the South, it's like eating at a Southern buffet restaurant in Mobile, Alabama, on a Sunday afternoon, and upon leaving church. And along with their food, they've got some homemade lemonade, sweet iced tea, and other Southern drinks. Their food is going to wish that these people would stay in the South for a long, long time. Come to think of it, Southern cooking is as good as soul food that is made in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, especially when they're eating some chicken and waffles, some chicken fried steak, and shrimp and grits. Now how delicious is that? And everyone will be talking about the food they've eaten and recommend their favorite Southern restaurants to their friends and family members, even on holiday. Boy, are we going to have a Southern fest with our favorite foods from the South, including some crawfish, some barbecue ribs, hot water corn bread, every piece of food everyone can think of. And after this Southern fest is done at the end of the day, we'll be wanting some more of that Southern cooking.
