Just dint get caught drinkin it in public or men with guns will take away your freedom, put u in a cage with dangerous men and then take your money for months and months.
@smadge100 Cheep horse shit. I emphasize that. I jsut check online for the price of a 12-pack for Heiniken and Budweiser and they average at $10. You get what you paid for. Either that, or its just our name brands that suck.
When I was a kid living in Tennessee, my school took us on a field trip to a pork rinds factory. We literally saw how pork rinds were made. After the tour we all got free bags of pork rinds. That was one of the best days of my life.
I'm kinda surprised you were still willing to eat them after seeing the factory, it's like working in a restaurant kitchen, you'll never eat there again
Uuuhhhh, no! I was about 6 years old when I had my first Dr. Pepper with peanuts. I will be 70 in July. And this tradition had been going own for a long long time before I tried it.
Fun Fact: The Chick-O-Stick is made in Lufkin Texas at the Atkinson Candy Company. The company was founded by B.E. and Mabel Atkinson in 1932 in Lufkin Texas and their original factory was on what is now known as Atkinson Drive. They have since moved locations. They are widely known for Peanut Butter Bars using the original recipe and at one point, used so much sugar, that they had a dedicated rail line that brought in sugar to them. Currently the Atkinson Candy Company is run by Eric Atkinson who is the grandson of the founders and they operate a 100,000 sq ft facility. Before the pandemic ACC used 4 million pounds of sugar each year in their candies.
“The true southern way is too say it was really good I liked it and then when you leave you can talk as bad about it as you’d like too” 😂😂 if this don’t sum up my family I don’t know what does lmao
I always thought that there was a huge crossover between Scottish food, and southern food. Both were born from poverty and necessity, the "do more with less" attitude that produced a lot of southern comfort foods also produced a good deal of traditional Scottish meals. But when it comes to deserts, both Scots and Southerners take the attitude of "there is no such thing as too sweet, or too rich". I submit to you Scottish Tablet as the primary example. No substance more sweet and rich exists on the planet.
Many Scottish people came over to the south after the clearing of the Highlands. Scotland invented the deep-fried Mars bar, so there are definitely tastes in common.
"The moment you step foot into mobile, you get attacked by moonpies" As an alabama native, this is 100% true. The moonpie is the dominant species in Alabama.
I had all of these north of the Mason Dixon line for the first time, except peanuts and coke (VA). Even though coke was dominant, RC was what you added peanuts to in the early 70s. I didnt have chick-o-stix until I moved to GA. Love them, less sweet than butterfinger, but they do have an odd aftertaste.
I legit have a video of a friends kid (from England) saying “taco” the EXACT same way he is, in every variation! She was 7 when they visited us in AZ and it was hilarious 🤣
I feel like the quick wit and sardonic retort coming from this man is giving him a southern experience all on its own. Part of southern charm is to make you question if a statement is serious, joking, ill-willed, or sincere. It's a gift.
I was in the Army for a few years and got to know people from around the country. One thing I learned about Southerners is they have their own unique humor just as you described above.
A true southerner can insult you and at the same time make you feel so good about it that you thank them. Quick tip: "Well bless your heart!" Translates as "Who ties your shoes for you each morning?"
Oh my goodness, bless his heart. My poppa would give me peanuts in Coke. My grandma would always fuss and say I was going to knock my teeth out when the peanuts would stick in the bottom of the bottle. He'd say no she won't, the her being sassy would ask what happened to his teeth.
" You drink beer with those..." "I don't know if you know this but can drink beer with anything, that's called freedom, and we got tons of that in America." I respect that mate, I respect that.
Goo-Goo Clusters changed their recipe decades ago, they now taste chemically & cheap. They use to be my favorite, richer chocolate, more creamy marshmallow and gooey Carmel with big peanut halves.
The moment when Matt was just chucking Moon Pies at the camera crew felt extremely Southern to me for some reason. It's like when my mom brings me sweet tea during our class Google Meets for school 😂
2:20 “Also a product of Tennessee. They make all the good stuff.” Why yes, yes we do. Also, it really would’ve been an southern experience for him, if you paired the moonpie with an RC Cola.
@@kateramsey262 Exactly . Once you hit south Tn and Alabama there are Sundrop machines everywhere. I have cousins that drink that all the time . You can see the citrus particles floating in it .
There was an event where people from the restaurants in my town served samples of their food. At the Jim and Nick's Bbq table they had pimento cheese on a saltine crackers with a piece of smoked sausage drizzled with a little hot sauce. It was so good!😋👍❤
You mean the Hoggly Woggly 😁. Seriously even tho I'm a southern woman and my kin loves pimento, never could develop a taste for it 😓 but pork skins....bring it on.
Never knew that's how it started. Thanks. My Georgia/Alabama kin had coal miners in it. Just know I always loved it, but these new coke and bottles just don't fizz up like the classic thick bottles and peanuts don't have enough salt 😓😱
"Palmetto Cheese" started in my hometown of Pawleys Island, South Carolina and is the ONLY acceptable 'store bought' Pimento Cheese to serve your guests when you're in a pinch and don't have the time or ingredients for home made. Yes, it's THAT good.
That sounds so good right now!! Spread thick on toast! Yummy!! My mom used to take a pound of Velveeta cheese a pound softened cheddar cheese miracle whip and chopped up pimentos. That was it. so delicious!
Born and raised in Georgia, lived since 1976 in North Carolina and I have NEVER eaten a banana moonpie. Didn’t even know there was such a thing until I was over 40!
We used to stuff celery sticks with pimento cheese every single Holiday!!! Did this my entire childhood growing up!!! Still doing it today!!! It's a Family Tradition for us!!!! Along with salty peanuts and redhots!!!! Every holiday!!!!
My great-grandma used to own a restaurant and on her menu, she would serve things that most people were eating during the depression. One of those things was Peanut Coca-Cola. She would use a milkshake machine and put creamy peanut butter in it. As it was blending she would add your choice of soda. And that was your drink. Teenagers would come into her restaurant all the time and ask for one of these drinks. This was in Illinois and she was originally from Colorado.
