Ok these are most definitly not Southern Beans and rice! You use pigs feet, or ham hocks, etc. We don't analyse serving, we just dish it up. We eat it with cornbread. Wow. This dish we grew up making as Slaves, and we made it for white folks in the past, and like gumbo and everything else they now make it too! I told my grandma who's still alive, she should write a book about the descent of certain southern foods from slavery to the 4 star restaurant today, talk about their real roots, etc.

@cammicty I made the vid when I was living in Nashville after Katrina so the ingredients were the ones found in Nashville.

as far as slavery, I'm of Irish decent: The Irish slave trade began when James II sold 30,000 Irish prisoners as slaves to the New World. Ireland quickly became the biggest source of human livestock for English merchants. The majority of the early slaves to the New World were actually white.

@cammicty stop talking shit, close your mouth you arrogant fool.

Gee Whizz, I thought this video was about food, NOT slavery... What's wrong with you people?

@JTuesday777 I am over it, however, as I replied to the other comment. I am not of today's bamboozled blacks, ( the majority) Next time read and try to understand the entire comment, if that is within your power to do so. The comment has nothing to do with being racist, it was just facts! My comment stands, and unfortunately when comments are made that are the truth, as mine, it bothers some white folks. But moving on,,,,

[cammicty]

@JTuesday777 Don't jump into a comment, unless you understand why it was made! FYI Slavery was slavery, but no where did they suffer the most as Blacks in the USA. This comment was not racial , just facts! I do understand there are many Bamboozled Blacks today as well. I am not afraid or shy to discuss what happened in slavery towards Blacks, nor do I back down, towards the ill treatment of Blacks still today in society, so get your head out of the grass!

[JTuesday777]

@cammicty And like tranurse says, doesn't excuse or mitigate what happened to black people, just gives the idea that plenty of people suffered and are STILL suffering from slavery so stop making yourself or our race the lone victim of something that never even directly happened to you. You don't see Haitians like myself saying "Damn those French folks for what they did to our ancestors hundreds of years ago!"

[JTuesday777]

@cammicty Wow, I am black and I just wanted to say, GET OVER IT!! Jeeze, some of us make it seem as if black people are the only ones who have endured (or are STILL ENDURING for that matter) Slavery. Be lucky that we're out of it, some people in some countries aren't so lucky. Heck, there are people in this country who aren't so lucky even if it's illegal. So stop making everything about race and make it about the quality of being a human being in general.
