Okra.
Simple plain jane ol' tomatoes. Vile red things they are. I'm comfy with salsa, ketchup etc but just not them on their own.
Chicken fried steak... just don't get it.

Rocky Mountain Oysters - try 'em!! Not bad but we're not known for our seafood.

Since peeps have mentioned biscuits'n'gravy ... Damn you - I'm now going to have to make 'em this eve... hmm, with chicken or eggs.
There are couple of places here which pride themselves for Breakfast Pot Pie... self explanatory imo, and Saddlebags - pancakes with sausage and bacon in them with eggs on top.
Still, guilty pleasure are bacon wrapped hotdogs or bratts.

I'm a salad person when I don't cave, crave and breakdown.....

You take the batter from southern fried chicken like kfc but way better and instead of chicken you use beef steak usually a thin sirloin. Yummy. Place near me slathers it in their special pork green Chili sauce. Divine!

Kale steamed for 5 minutes and seasoned thats for me. Had raw kale in a salad once, a bit too bitter for me. Possibly the wrong type of kale.

OK I love this, it's just a tenderized cheap steak in breadcrumbs with spices and you fry it up in the pan and put some of the gravy from biscuits and gravy over it. I love it, but eat it rarely, it's high fat, high salt high calorie. Yum!

Chicken fried Chicken is even better, smashed flat coated and fried served with country gravy
