Soul Food Day at Work

[lumencuro]

Today we had a potluck that involved our commitment to diversity. It was soul food day! Now, I am most interested in other cultures and ways of life so I knew today would be interesting long before today arrived. However, I was in for a surprise that disturbs me... What did we have?

Food that makes your arteries clog up in two seconds and gives you heartburn :D but is SOO good. Comfort food, I've always thought.

Garden salad? Uh....lol

Soul food, to me, is collard greens and fried chicken. macaroni and cheese if it is made properly. mashed potatoes with gravy (not plain!....biscuits.....green beans (made with some sort of fat)

I'm not quite sure of the definition but that's what i think of. :) Not garden salad, sorry.

I don't really know what soul food is exactly, but it's definetely not McDonalds or Burger King.

I don't really see much diversity in these dishes you listed, you should check out Head Start festivals, there are parents from all over the world, they bring good stuff.
