All but grits and greens. I've just never liked grits and while I don't mind the taste of greens I can't get past the texture.

Southern Cornbread does not have sugar, though it may have cracklins at times.

They promote their greens with "pot liquor".

I have been eating at Cracker Barrel and I think there turnip greens are great. They add a little meat with the greens and its good and they have excellent cornbread.

Mac n cheese and fried chicken for me...in my opinion, grits are the biggest waste of space in the world. I won't ever understand the draw.

Sugar is the best in cornbread, and some butter when it's fresh out of the oven... Can't beat that with a whisk.
