Food






I can only attempt to mention the food of the Mississippi delta through this list... I did not have the time to experience it all, but I did taste most of what's mentioned below.

Pulled BBQ pork, grilled corn, okra, green beans, corn bread, lima beans, rice and gravy, smothered fried, smoked, and baked chicken, turkey, stuffing topped with yellow gravy, mashed potatoes, cannied yams, crab cakes, shrimp, seasoned and regular fries, hush puppies, Catfish, kool-icles (pickles soaked in kool-aid for a wk), fried pickles, fried okra

Sweet tea, lemonade, peach cobbler, banana pudding, sweet potato pie, pork and chicken rinds, tamales, fried chicken and pound cake.
On the first day I represented hard and threw down at the lunch table buffet! When I was on line for seconds, I got to witness first hand how the people of the Delta taste their food.
They placed cornbread in a bowl, topped it with string beans or lima beans and added the juices from the beans. I asked someone about this mixture and he referred to it as liquor, lol.
