I'm Dutch and my Dutch Grandmother (RIP) made the BEST potato salad EVER. It was so freaking good--had bacon, and all the bacon grease in it and everything! Cool lettuce, green onion, etc...

Which is funny because I HATE butter-----so that means I hate Paula Deen. Just has to be that way.

My family is all from the Northeast to my knowledge---but anythings possible. I know several of my relatives fought in the Civil War (Yanks natch). But who knows!

And there are many different accents in the Northeast as well. Jersey is a biggie. Cross between NYC and Southern accents I swear....I could never ever duplicate it in my life---and I've tried!

I moved back to SC (upstate) about 8 years ago and managed to keep my non-accent going for a while, but this last couple of years the southern has managed to sneak back in. I never stopped saying "y'all" though - it's a very utilitarian word.

You people are SICK! I love the raw onions in mine... although, thanks to what Lynnie said about her dutch grandmother, I think I'll be cooking my onions in bacon grease for my next potato salad! Damn, that sounds good.... maybe I'll make one this weekend!

...on of the best 10 seconds of video I've ever seen was when Paula got hit in the head with a ham...I want to BE that guy....the only thing I would have done differently is to throw another two or three at her before someone stopped me...

Team Bourdain

I love ribs that have been smoked for hours. Not easy to find that up here.

Y'all are cray cray. Onions are awesome.

**shedevilang** · May 24th, 2012, 11:31 AM

**cynic** · May 24th, 2012, 11:56 AM

....darned southerners make potato salad look and taste like orangeish-yellow mashed potatoes...nothing but over-cooked potatoes, mustard and that nasty Dukes mayo....
