Thats just sweet potato casserole. Its a staple of southern thanksgivings. Sweet potato, marshmallows, brown sugar and pecans. And a shitload of butter.

 

You probably like pineapple on your pizza too, don't you...

 

This is a staple of southern cooking as well.

 

Its essentially a dessert.

 

When I was in Mississippi for a while, the thing that stood out the most was the food. I understand why it’s the most obese state in the country now, the food is freakin’ amazing. The best ribs I’ve ever had in my life was inside of a Chevron.

 

I wish I had a Man vs Food job. I love food soo much.

 

You remember Paula Deens cooking show on Food Network? Thats essentially the basis of all southern cooking.

Just a little more butter...

 

Surprised Danny's not fat

 

I used to be about 40 lbs heavier. The key is moderation.

 

Speaking of getting fat...co worker had this set aside for me for awhile. Since I was gone for COVID -



Bigger than @Empty_Lord

I had just gotten the regular sized one from the vending machine

 

You looked pretty fit, that along with the mountain biking has gotta help.

 

@Kwikvette starting my home made chicken stock so i can make home made clam chowder later

 

Yeah I've had sweet potatoe fries with brown sugar which is delicious, so I can see the appeal

 

I like it when you bake sweet potatoes with brown sugar and marshmallows on top. So amazing

 

Yeah that's a Midwestern thing lol. At least in my family it is, my grandma would always do the sweet potatoe casserole with marshmallows on top. Never liked it as a kid but probably never even gave it a chance

 

I hated it as a kid even though I would never try it. But now i love it.

actually learned to like almost all vegetables now

 

I'm too accustomed to regular potatoes and the lack of sweetness. Never cared for sweet potatoes or sweets in general. I'm more into savory and spice.

 

I still keep away from most vegetables lol

Funny enough I married a vegetarian. Corn, broccoli, green beans, bell pepper... That's about all I'll eat somewhat regularly. Although when she does brussel sprouts baked in the oven with olive oil and balsamic/salt that's really good

 

Fuck

Future mother in law went to the ER just a bit ago.

COVID related.

She started experiencing symptoms just a few days ago; we suspect it came from my girl's niece as her parents were the ones that had it before Christmas.

 

Damn, hoping for the best. You and your girl got through it yeah? I know she had it pretty bad compared to you
