Delicious Southern Foods

Fried okra is one of my favorite Southern foods, and is difficult to find outside the South. If you've never had it, it is delicious - truly, a piece of heaven on earth. It makes eating your vegetables enjoyable.

I'll also miss macaroni and cheese being considered a vegetable.

Southern barbeque is also delicious, cooked slowly to perfection. Indeed, it is unusual to find a bad barbeque restaurant here.

On the flip side, Philadelphia (and the northeast in general) has better pizza than the South; here, the best pizza seems to be prepared by people who have moved from the midwest (another area that has delicious pizza) or the northeast.
