My great-grandma Shorty’s chess pie recipe baked in her pot pie tins. She used to bake a hundred of these for church events and bake sales in Cooloomee, NC.

Sometime I hear people say “Don’t eat anything your grandparents wouldn’t recognize as food.”
And I wonder if they ever talked to their grandparents about food. ‘Cause mine recognized head cheese, ponhaus, jello salads, and peanut butter and mayo sandwiches as food.*

*note: I’ve been known to enjoy 3 out of 4 of those.
When I was grown and able to leave Nashville, I discovered that restaurant menus elsewhere were weird. I was used to a menu that had you choose a meat and then three side items from a list. Side items, usually on a board on the wall (sophisticated!), included things like greens, squash casserole, slaw, cornbread and more. You know, regular food. 
Turns out this type of menu is called a "Meat and Three" and, while similarly-styled menus can be found elsewhere in The South, the pure form originated in #Nashville. And you can still find 'Meat and Three' restaurants here today. If you visit, put one on your list.
Vegan/vegetarians should be able to get a "veggie plate".
(Pro tip: Squash casserole is awesome)
[Short film] Tides of Tradition
"Communities like the #Unangax̂ rely on traditional #foodways instead of customary, expensive grocery suppliers. This film by Kanesia McGlashan-Price of #Unalaska, #Alaska, follows the journey of a local subsistence hunter and shares the realities of food access in the changing Arctic and the values that inform their harvest."

It's been a tough year for most of us, including restaurants. Not only are we not restauranting as much, we've changed what we're ordering, and, when we go.. But, when we go out, we're exploring loyalty programmes and international flavours.

If you missed me on Friday (or want to listen to it again), here's the listen later to my CBCKW Food column on the new Waterloo Region Food Directory :)
There's a new local food directory in Waterloo Region! The Waterloo Region Food Directory aims to capture as much of our local food scene and system as it can through three main pillars: eat local, grow local, and give local!
It's also my food column for this week )
If you missed Friday's food column, it's been saved for a listen later!
This time, it's all about spicy soups and soup-like dishes that'll keep you warm for when the cold weather comes.
If you missed Friday's food column, it's been saved for a listen later!
This time, it's about apple butter and hard apple cider, complete with some ways you can cook and bake with them. Num.

Got to chat with Fouzan at Soi Thaifoon for an upcoming CBCKW Food Column...and got to have this gorgeous Thai Iced Tea.
I LOVE the mixing of the tea with the milk...it looks like turbulence on Mars.

These routes are made for walkin'...and eatin'. And that's just what you'll do...
...on these local food walking tours. My latest CBCKW food column is all about exploring the edible and sippable spots on guided tours.
Be sure to wear your walking shoes and eating pants.

Squee! My food column for CBCKW is now saved so you can listen later (vs live on Friday mornings)!
Here's the link to last Friday's column, when I talked about Mooncakes!
Next week is the harvest moon, which means it's time for the Mooncake festival!
So appreciative of Yang Li and her mum Qirui Zhang's invitation to go over and learn about the festival and learn how to make mooncakes!
It's in my latests CBC-KW Food Column
