Have y’all noticed younger Blacks don’t really fw Soul Food

I'm 29 and on that vegetarian wave..Been consistent since Nov22 and at the moment I hope I never turn back

Young folk traded greasy dairy and leafy greens for a different type of greasy dairy and leafy greens. The menu is evolving. Nothing to be concerned about.

I still eat soul food. I picked up a gut though

I went to Amy Ruth's last weekend with my friend and it was great. I saw other young people there also. I rarely eat at soul food restaurants. I also dont eat out much. I cook 95% of the time. But I can't wait to go back to Amy Ruth's

HAS to be down south we still have sunday dinners where the whole fam get together and eat soul food they need to get back in touch with their roots, been around cacs to long.

Im born and raised in NY and my fam still does this, IN NY!!

I never had this

Y'all do realize that soul food is mostly vegetables and you don't have to fry the meats right?

Nah, my nikka. You gotta fry all the meats and drench all the veggies in bacon fat. Use a generous amount of salt also.

Soul food is unhealthy. I still eat it but I'm broke so..yeah. As soon as I get a job I'll try some vegan soul food. But my fav food is Italian though.
Anyways its unhealthy so many people are dying of heart disease and other food-related sicknesses. Everyone should cut down on soul food, fried foods, sodas,etc. But most people are not cooking they're just ordering takeout. Your too tired from your low paying job to cook anything. Work half the day and have food to cook but don't feel like cooking. Its just easier to get a burger or pizza. Soul food takes longer to cook than frying up some wings and fries.

But who ever said the parents don't cook is right. In my house I had either my mom or grandmom cooking. But some these 90s babies their parents are just feeding them fast food then sitting them in front of the tv or computer. Parents can't afford to take care of them. Without child support, WIC, food stamps most of these kids would barely get that.

A sign that the culture is being lost ... and when the culture goes we go ... but we are all one big happy universal family right

Will traditional/Black/Country/Southern food become extinct? (Chit'lins, HogMaws, NeckBones, etc)

Don't trust any black person that can't appreciate a pot of greens (with that pot likka), black eyed peas, cornbread, catfish, fried chicken, bbq Earl Campbell hot links baked mac N cheese, chess/pecan/sweet potato pie, peach cobbler and kool aid or sweet tea with more sugar than the pies.

RIP Slave food

I'm an old head and I never liked that shyt...most of the time I got in trouble as a kid is cause I refused to eat it

Everybody in my crib on holidays would get sick except me...wonder why

I believe the stats show how unhealthy soul food is. I try my best to not eat it. I'm only 32.
