I was raised on dried field peas, pinto beans, butterbeans, colards, turnip greens, potatoes, and corn bread. We would only have meat on sundays. White bread was only for sandwiches. My mom made bisquits or what we called whole cake which was actually just bisquit dough baked in a cast iron skillet like cornbread.
