Well I have learnt something from this thread...I had 'blackpudding' down for a white working class food, particularly Northern, along with tripe, cow foot, oxtail and dripping.
Slave food, Poor peoples food, cultures aside what's the difference?

Well, the difference is all those additives in the food we now eat, overhere. My goodness, all the butter, grease and fried foods is crazy when you think about it. Gravy, and whatever else we put on food. Fried Chicken is soul food but is was not slave food. It was invented in the 50's. Well, the food I was raised to love and appreciate...my momma's "Soul food" and supersized servings of it, is bad for me. I still love it but I have replaced the fattening things with healthier choices ie, baking chicken instead of frying it etc.
Thanks for your post
