Soul Food


The first thing that comes to my mind when I think about the South is soul food. Whether it is fried chicken and waffles, pig feet or simply Iced Tea, soul food is a great representation of the South. Many people might ask what exactly is soul food? In my opinion, soul food is simply food that can only be found in the South or was originated in the South. Examples of soul food are, of course, fried chicken, collard greens, pig feet, chitlins, sweet iced tea, etc. Normally, families get together and enjoy a delicious meal while sharing memories and simply having a great time. Southern hospitality is also involved with soul food. Food is always served by very friendly people who love to serve others and put a smile on people's faces. Every restaurant that I have visited in the South left a great impression on how people in the South are. The waiters and workers in every restaurant have manners, are very helpful and love to serve me in any way that they can. Anyone that comes to the South will definitely feel welcomed after being served soul food.
