The Mason-Dixon line, aka the Waffle House line. No Waffle Houses north of the M-D line. I'm a Yankee from Iowa, but I prefer Waffle House to IHOP. Mmmm, pecan waffles...
I'm not the first to make this observation. http://www.theonion.com/articles/masondixon-line-renamed-ihopwaffle-house-line,9630/ Other foods I miss from the South: Good BBQ, in its many regional variants. Cajun cuisine. Fresh seafood, especially Gulf shrimp. Beans & rice. Cheese grits. Bananas Foster. Beignets. Muffalettas. I flew as a flight instructor based in Pensacola, FL, and we made fuel stops all over the south. Often, the choice for where to stop was based on what local food was available. Typical phone call: "Hello, Lake Charles Flight Service? You're serving Crawfish Etoufee today? Sweet, we'll be there in a couple hours." However, when I lived in the south, I couldn't get: Good sweet corn (Iowa's is tops). German food. And usually their green veggies were swimming in pork grease. And I never understood how there are probably twice as many ice cream shops (per capita) in the North compared to the South? I mean, it's warm down there so you'd think ice cream would sell well. Go figure. -Tim On Thu, Nov 20, 2014 at 9:21 AM, Ron Mc <bulldog...@gmail.com> wrote: > It's a Texas thing - it's jokes - Canada is up by Dalhart, Ohio is a > northern county.
