You either like "southern cooking" or you don't. Cracker Barrel makes some things from "scratch" (like biscuits & dumplings) but its all cooked southern style. The way your grandma probably use to cook. Vegetables were canned in those days----before refrigerators and meatloaf had gravy over it they used real butter and buttermilk.

There are few places you can go to get Okra, greens, pinto beans and fried apples. To each their own. I remember grandma being one heck of a cook.
