Southern Food Heritage Day
Every year, Southern Food Heritage Day is celebrated on October 11. The Southern Food & Beverage Museum celebrates the culturally rich and delicious food of the Southern States in America. The cuisine deserves to be recognized and celebrated officially because it is a testament to American history and legacy. Southern food also represents the essence of America — the coming together of a variety of people from all over the world, each bringing with themselves their own ingredients and recipes to create a unique cuisine. Iced tea, pickled shrimps, and fried chicken are some of the most loved Southern foods throughout history. Along with the cuisine, the day also celebrates the racial and ethnic diversity in America.
History of Southern Food Heritage Day
Southern Food Heritage Day celebrates the best that Southern food and beverages have to offer. The South’s cuisine in America can be found in the historical regional culinary form of states generally south of the Mason-Dixon line dividing Pennsylvania and Delaware from Maryland, along the Ohio River, and extending west to southern Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas. The most notable influences on Southern cuisine are African, English, Scottish, Irish, German, French and Native American.
The food of the American South displays a unique blend of cultures and culinary traditions. The Native Americans, Spanish, French, and British have contributed to the development of Southern food, with recipes and dishes from their own cultures. Food items such as squash, tomatoes, corn, as well as certain cooking practices such as deep pit barbecuing, were introduced by south-eastern Native American tribes such as the Caddo, Choctaw, and Seminole. Many foods derived from sugar, flour, milk, and eggs have European roots. Black-eyed peas, okra, rice, eggplant, sesame seed, sorghum, and melons, along with spices, are of African origin.
Southern food can be further divided into categories: ‘Soul food’ is heavily influenced by African cooking traditions that are full of greens and vegetables, rice, and nuts such as peanuts. Okra and collard greens are also considered Soul Food, along with thick stews. ‘Creole food’ has a French flair, while ‘Cajun cuisine’ reflects the culinary traditions of immigrants from Canada. ‘Lowcountry’ cuisine features a lot of seafood and rice, while the food of the Appalachians is mostly preserved meats and vegetables. Southern food is partial to corn, thanks to the Native American influence.

This corn cobs looked so cute, I couldn't pass by without taking a shot. Location: Bukovel, Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains.
Local highlanders use a lot o corn in their cuisine, incl. legendary Banosh, based on corn mill and sour cream. The latter is often referred as the Carpathian powerful energizer, especially loved by Hutsuls, a Carpathian ethnic group.
A few facts to add to the theme:
Corn is highly domesticated: Modern corn varieties have been selectively bred over thousands of years and differ greatly from their wild ancestors.
corn is a prime example of a plant that has become highly dependent on human cultivation

Happy birthday Floppy!!!!!! One whole year old 🎉🎉🎉
[image id: three photos, all of stuffed animal possums. Their names are Floppy, Poppy, Corn Cob and Rocky. Floppy is the largest, and both he and Poppy have natural colors. Corn Cob is yellow, orange and brown, and Rocky has a slight purple tint to his fur. All of them are wearing party hats. The first photo is a group shot, showing them all in a circle, with a cookie in the middle, a candle stuck into it. The second is just Floppy, posed in front of the cookie. The final picture is them all crowded around the cookie, now with a bite taken out of it, the candle set off to the side. End id]
