I live in the South now, but i grew up in California until i was 20. I always loved the Organic vegetarian stuff, all of it. Anything that has to do with vegetarian anything. I just dont like the texture of meat, or the smell of fried food, i dont know why. Im wired that way. Give me a cheese ball and im yours.
Southern homestyle. It's identified in some quarters as soul food but there is a crossover between the two. It's the kind of stuff that's good while you're eating it but really not good for you in the long run. This genre is heavy on frying, baking (as with biscuits and cornbread, cakes and pies) and vegetables seasoned with meat.
