You really have no clue, do you? Mac & cheese may have come up in your
Google [or whatever] searches about southern food, but I didn't ask about
southern food, did I? I wanted opinons from people I know, not some blind
Google search list. A 10 year old can do that.

Just because I live in the south doesn't mean I want to eat grits, greens
and mac & cheese with everything. It certainly never blipped on my radar as
a side dish for salmon patties. I think mac & cheese would be stupid with
salmon patties no matter what your web searches declared. I grew up with
mac & cheese as a main dish casserole, not a side dish.
