I ate what looked like "hushpuppies" from Long John Silver's restaurant, but there was no comparison. They were simply delicious, whereas I can toss the hushpuppies to my dogs. They came from Granny's Kitchen in Cherokee NC, which has the best "ordinary" food I ever ate. I think a lot about that good food.

[@gretafields4706]

I think that might be what I ate from Granny's Kitchen. I don't know how they get so much flavor into plain ole beans!!

So because my father was native and my mom was white and I look more white that means I'm non native? Shut up bum

Bear grease??? The Cherokee farmed hogs. Where do people get this shit? 🙄

[@hexkobold9814]

Pigs (Sus domestica) are native to Eurasia and were imported here from across the sea during colonial times. Bear grease and other wild animal fat was probably used before that time.

And deer. Don’t forget about the deer.
