Ahhh okie that is where you are wrong. my tastebuds are just fine

Ok Bare, if your tastebuds are intact, do you really think KFC Okra tastes like true Southern fried Okra is supposed to? I personally think KFC Okra tastes like fried cardboard. Now their coleslaw is great. I can give a recipe for coleslaw that tastes just like theirs. Or rather, theirs tastes like my Mama's did and like mine does. ROFL

jalapeno peppers are for wimps.  It takes a real man to eat Habeneros!
MMMmmmm

People who eat Habeneros don't have taste buds left to taste chicken. 

I guess this thread is as good a place to jump in as any. From what I have read here, you all sound like you are members of PETA, That is ( People Eating Tasty Animals). 
I like fried Chicken as well as anyone. Mama cooked hers original style when the hens weren't laying to good and added egg to make it crispy when they were. Going by that, I would have to say crispy, that is spring and summer fried chicken. Travels better for a picnic to. On the other hand, original reminds me of the cold winter evenings after doing chores. Mama's gravy and hot bisquits with that original style chicken. MMMMM Good!

Mama taught me how to fry chicken, so if I have to settle for KFC, I usually get a piece of each. Let me say also, the Colonel doesn't have anything on this old gals fried chicken. 
To quote some of the slang the kids use, " It's All Good".

Hello,
 I go by Okie. I am the Mother of two grown children, Grandmother of two and another ordered for November. My husband of 27 yrs is a Prison Guard. I am helping to home school my grandchildren.  I am as country as they come. I am new here, but not new to Christian Forums nor the Bible. I refer to myself as non denominational. I have attended several denominations, but think too much man made religion has creeped in for any of them to have the whole true WORD. I enjoy discussing the Bible and even a friendly debate here and there. I have been on forums that allow heretics. I am so happy to find a group of God Fearing Christians to fellowship with. I look forward to getting to know you folks.
