My grandparents lived in South Carolina for some time. Long enough that my dad watches Nascar while speaking in a Southern accent from time to time.

Like once every few months, I find him on the couch with a beer shouting "There ain't nothin' stock about a stock car! Tires! Tires wins the race!"

I'll try it for sure if I see it at a restaraunt but I don't have a lot of faith that I'm gonna like it.

I had a roomate friend from England for awhile who liked Marmite. I'd eat it almost every day just so I could tell him how awful it was again.

don't try it at a restaurant, unless you happen to be in Quebec.

Fresh cut potatoes, skins on fried in lard (yes, lard) cheese curds chicken gravy,

half of fries in bowl half cheese curds other half of fries other half of cheese curds smother in HOT gravy.

enjoy, and then go see your cardiologist.

Teach 'em anything different? I'd bet five bucks (your hero again) that they learn the same myths taught in public schools on the topic.

Emancipation proclomation 1863

13th amendment 1865

most northen states had already abolished slavery locally.
*edit* doing more research
all the border states had freed there own slaves already, save kentucky which did so in december 1865
 
I bow to the superior historical gleanings of a Canadian who has spent twelve minutes researching the topic. How could I possibly think I know anything compared to that?

1865, 1868...no difference there at all. Almost as long as we had a government of our own, but really, no big deal. What'sa three year error between friends?






Y'all excuse me for the remainder of the day, I'll be puking.
 
Cheese curds kinda freak me out. When I was about 6 I went to an independent cheese place to see how they made cheese. (family fun summer vacation :blank: ).

I saw them making cheese at the point where they remove the curds. I've not been able to eat one. I think melted would be more palatable.
 
mmm cheese curds. Fond memories of county fairs in Wisconsin and of course Cheese Days in Monroe.

Poutine - had some at a hole-in-the-wall diner in Ignace, Ont. Pretty good, made me poop by Upsula though.
 
You guys go way too far north. I've never heard of Upsula. Only heard of Ignace from fluffy.
