Yeah, my white grandfather's favorite meal. Collard greens and corn bread.

Oh yeah and some butter beans and black eyed peas for sides .... I'd hit that shit like it owed me money....

As a white man, I love collard greens and corn bread. I can understand how it became associated with (poor) black communities, but damn is it good. It shouldn't be an insult like some people make it.

I live in the South. Nobody here ever heard of “Soul Food”.

Everybody eats that because it’s awesome.

Go to a meat and three after Church on Sunday. You will see it full of happy old White People eating exactly what you described.

Exactly: my first time outside the South eating at a Soul Food place was funny, because to me it was just Food.

I've got a whole song arranged for Appalachian/mountain dulcimer about how great collard greens are. Iirc it's by the prolific author "traditional".

Edit: oops, it's about turnip greens. Totally different.
