Things You Still Eat That You Loved As a Kid

[putnam6]

Poke Salad and poke sallet are the same thing some spell it one and others spell it the other way.
We never used the stalk and mother boiled the leaves for hours then drained the poison. Then rinse them and then cooked them again in a skillet with eggs. I was so good.

I also like collards with cornbread, black eyed peas, and salt meat!

Yes um I know they are the same thing now,LOL but at the time I was a little kid half listening and visiting Granny I never knew there was a "Sallet" till young adulthood Elvis and Tony Joe White never sang about Poke "Sallet" Annie

I could live off Blackeyed Peas jalapeno cornbread and a 1/4 onion. It is so good and filling and you can add different layers of flavor. Sriracha or Napalm Jam, bacon crumbles, chopped onions, cilantro. 

Here's another bean or pea I get confused on, we called them Crowder peas but are those just Field peas and different altogether? Granny's field peas seem a little smaller than the crowder peas Mom made. But they all were still so damn good.

As long as they aren't Lima beans and if they are prepared properly, I can eat a mess of beans or peas.
