Is this anyone else’s family tradition?

black eyed peas, collards and chitlins were the foundation of New Years growing up. I got a love/hate relationship with chitlins. I quit em at least 4X and keep coming back. I haven't had em in 4 years, tho.

black eyed peas is my favorite, but nobody else seems to like it anymore. we don't have any new years traditions though, except going downtown to see the ball drop, drinking champagne, and partying.

I real MEH on black eyed peas man... like damn I'd rather take baked beans at the most.. I dont see the appeal...

never liked baked beans, too sweet. always prepared with sugar.
Black eyed peas are more savory, like tiny little baked potatoes. i prefer that angle.

Don’t tempt me - I am in a Recovery Rage Intervention program. It’s been 4 days since my last assault. I need support as I continue on my journey.

But back on subject, my father cooks pinto beans, navy beans - my mom cooks pig feet, collard greens and rice. Dessert is Bread pudding,with egg nog and/or coquito. and No one better @ me with the ‘mj smiley’ bc I don’t like blackeye peas. I don’t like how they taste. I prefer pinto and as a daddy’s girl my father does whatever I ask. Waits for it....

First year in a while I haven’t had coquito.... tastes so good, I’d be FUKKED up before I realize I drank too much.

I never had pigs feet...I would eat it if maybe they took it off the hoof or something

Lol at “off the hoof”

idk how my mom does it but I don’t ask. I just eat. I tHink they come prepackaged at the grocery store where she shops and she seasons, adds spices, hot sauce and boils them. They’re like mad sticky though but good.

Y’all saying black eyed peas ain’t got no taste???

Delicious especially with some white rice

 

[Luke Cage]

People always putting brown sugar in their baked beans. i don't like it. only like sugar in deserts. beans should be savory, like red beans and rice, black beans, shyt even refried bean. i never eat them and think, this needs some sugar in it. baked beans is a waste, could've used those beans in some chili instead.
But black eye peas are just delicious to me, i eat it with rice like some hoppin johns.

I always make a pot of black eyed peas with some hocks in them . You just reminded me that I might have to step out real quick and get both today because they sell out quick.
