The AHT Guide to Hamburger and Cheeseburger Styles
Slugburgers: no, they don't have dried slugs mixed into the burger. So named because you could buy a burger with a "slug," which was Depression-era slang for a nickle. "Slugburgers" are alive and well. Just eat them hot! Don't let them cool down.
Is there a real difference between Soul Food & Southern Food
Soul = Southern pretty much. Most white people in the pre-Civil War South did NOT have slaves cooking for them. After the war, most folks in the South were poor. Most regional food seems (to me, anyway) the food the poorest folks - black OR white - prepared from what was readily available.

Reviving the thread...before she got feeble, my mom fixed a "typical" dinner one night...green beans cooked with streak 'o lean, corn on the cob, sliced fresh homegrown tomatoes and cucumber, homegrown cantalope...there may have been some "fried cabbage" (grated cabbage cooked in an iron skillet with butter, salt, pepper, a pinch of sugar and a bit of water), fried potatoes, cornbread. A po' folks' supper since it had no meat. And lots of love...I miss mama.
