This episode is hosted by Trevor and Ken.  Today we have food writers Kathleen Purvis and Adrian E Miller in the studio to discuss how simple recipe differences in cornbread, mac n cheese and chitlins can make all of us fight to the ends of the earth, protecting our grannys kitchen classics.

Kathleen Purvis has been a food editor, columnist and reporter, running a weekly section and online food coverage. She's also written in, and been written about, in magazines from Garden & Gun to Southern Living.  In 2008, Kathleen was featured in Saveur magazine’s annual 100 issue for her work as a regional food editor.  Her writing has been included in editions of “Best Food Writing”, “Cornbread Nation” and in Garden & Gun’s new book “The Southerner’s Cookbook.”

Adrian E Miller is a "recovering lawyer and politico" who turned into a food writer interested in topics like, African heritage food (especially soul food), barbecue, the intersection of faith and food, and presidential foodways.  You can read more about him and his upcoming book Black Smoke: African Americans and the United States of Barbecue over at https://adrianemiller.com/

I'm late to the party but I finally listened to this episode today. I think Michael Harriot likes to be contrarian. He posted that tweet about cornbread is not supposed to be sweet but he's contradicted himself in one of his own articles. His tweet from Sept. 20th 2020: Cornbread is not supposed to be sweet. We have pound cake for that. (https://twitter.com/michaelharriot/status/1307786447894835200?s=20) But, in an article from Nov. 22nd 2017: Like dressing, there is a divide surrounding cornbread. Some people prefer sweet cornbread, while others prefer white people’s cornbread. (https://www.theroot.com/the-caucasians-guide-to-thanksgiving-part-2-the-menu-1820676919)
