Really? I would say that WV is like 80% Scottish and Irish with a few Germans thrown in.

Whoa, what were you doing out there in Town N Country? When I expect out-of-towners coming in and getting a cubans, I'm expecting them to go to Ybor. Not a bad choice though.

To keep with the Cuban theme, let's not forget the medianoche:



y frita cubana

Some may attempt to say BBQ for Mississippi. Our BBQ is good but it is just Memphis-style and there really aren't that many good BBQ places.

When I think Mississippi, I think fried chicken or fried catfish.

Boudin was on the bubble and was left out thanks to a weak schedule that consisted of mostly home games. In its only true test against strong competition it was smoked by Andouille in a neutral venue at the Lake Charles Refinery Eat Like a Pig Festival and Regatta.
