winter classic and bacon.

12/31/2010 1:59:10 PM

What a coincidence, I'm eating that same meal tomorrow

12/31/2010 2:06:07 PM

EVERYONE IN THE WORLD WHO DOES NOT EAT THOSE FOUR SPECIFIC ITEMS ON NEW YEARS DAY IS OBVIOUSLY FROM THE NORTHEASTERN REGION OF THE UNITED STATES!

12/31/2010 3:28:19 PM

I got all my goods at the farmers market today

What do other areas of the US eat for New Years Day? I heard a woman at the pork stand today say something about pork and sauerkraut up north but I don't remember ever eating that as a kid in NJ.

Oh hay look!

When I was in Japan everyone would eat soba:


Ozoni:


Mochi:


I feel like there's something else too but I forget.

collard greens are some nasty shit

12/31/2010 4:27:43 PM

haha my dad just moved into a new place near downtown charlotte and said there is a restaurant across the street that has collard greens every day- he was very happy about this (I can't stand the stuff)


side note: I have never done this tradition and I have turned out alright

12/31/2010 4:30:46 PM

^^^ you're planning on eating burnt cardboard with ketchup and cheese on it?

12/31/2010 4:43:20 PM

I prefer turnip greens, but collards'll do in a pinch.

12/31/2010 4:44:13 PM

i'm willing to bet that's the first time in the history of the internet that someone has typed collards'll

12/31/2010 4:45:54 PM

all that stuff is disgusting/stoopid. i know a lot of people that eat killed lettuce, some form of cabbage, and black eyed peas as well. get some better traditions, y'all.

[Edited on December 31, 2010 at 5:29 PM. Reason : minus the pork]

12/31/2010 5:28:55 PM

I didn't like collard greens until I had them at Second Empire. Smoked collard greens with bacon. Mmmmmmm

12/31/2010 5:32:33 PM

I had a late dinner today, and instead of having it at 8 or 9 pm, I had it at 1 am (2011), so this was my first meal of 2011:

I had:

Steak
Broccoli
Zucchini
Eggplant
Whole wheat pasta
Tangerine
Chocolate ice cream w/banana

Just finished washing all the dishes!

1/1/2011 7:04:50 PM

For our dinner we had

Pork
Blackeye peas
Hot Slaw
Cornbread
Meatballs
Mac and Cheese with chicken

1/1/2011 7:07:13 PM

re: cornbread

who fries and who bakes?

salty fried>>>>sweet baked

1/1/2011 7:12:21 PM

Baked in a cast iron pan.

1/1/2011 7:13:16 PM

If it's not cooked in a cast iron pan it's not cornbread.

1/1/2011 7:32:34 PM

If it's fried, then isn't it hushpuppies?

I used to think that too. Then I discovered the Brazilian way of making them and love them.

1/1/2011 7:48:40 PM

this is what fried cornbread looks (a cast iron pan is still required). add a little butter and dark molasses and you've got some good eats.

1/1/2011 7:55:40 PM

So they're corn pancakes

1/1/2011 7:57:59 PM

ha ha if you like your pancakes cooked in fatback grease, then, yeah i suppose so.

I can't stand black eyed peas, and I prefer cornbread baked in a pyrex dish to the hushpuppies fried in a cast-iron skillet. I have never heard of pork or collard greens being a traditional new-years eve dish, but I grew up on a beef farm so we rarely ever ate pork anyway.
