Things You Still Eat That You Loved As a Kid

Its why I asked...

We always had collards, which had to be boiled cause they were tough and bitter as hell.

I'd heard a granny or aunt talk about what I thought was called Poke Salad not Poke Sallet but I never knew how it was prepared I did not know they were poisonous.

 FWIW thats kind of crazy, it shows how desperate things must have gotten at some point, for people to eat it and to have recipes. If nothing else having to boil and rinse and then sautee, atleast spinach and cabbage you can wilt immediately

We had fried bologna sandwiches all the time except with mayo and sometimes a slice of cheese, LOL you had to slice them halfway through so they would lie flat. But hell we had fried bologna for breakfast sometimes too with scrambled eggs and biscuits. Fried Spam too

Here's one that I didn't learn about till I was in my 20's, my ex-wife's family had them all the time and they were good as hell. I'd have one today if I had all the ingredients

Sliced white bread, peanut butter, pineapple slice, sliced onion( preferably Vidalia) slice of boiled ham, and mayonnaise, with a few Wise potato chips and a glass of milk it is so good, and it's even better grilled. 

Didn't Elvis eat grilled peanut butter sandwiches with bacon and bananas?

I will do peanut butter and banana, or sliced onion and cheese...but only pineapple on pizza...
