Re: [MBZ] OT: Okieburger recipe
My grandmother would tell us the eating onions thing was a holdover from the Great Depression. In fact, she would have one meal a week be something that she and my grandfather would eat as the endured the Depression. She would prepare it then, as she brought it to the kitchen table, she would ceremoniously say, “never forget,” crush out her Pall Mall, and join us for supper. Things like brown gravy on white bread, navy beans, SOS, celery soup, hot water cornbread and milk, her version of Hoover Stew (hot dogs or any other leftover meat with stewed tomatoes) among other dishes. When my kids were growing up, and my grandmother would come and stay the winters with us, she would make one of her never forget meals about once a month. Anytime I made the navy beans for her I would include a smoked ham hock, and she would say they were good, but they were too gussied up for her with that fancy meat in it.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Okieburger recipe
When I met Mrs. Dan’s relatives the week after we were married, we were visiting her paternal grandmother in her “house” (using that word loosely, it was more of a “cabin” or shack with 2-3 rooms.) Her grandfather, whom I suspect knowing what I know now was suffering from senile dementia or Alzheimer’s, was walking through the place eating an onion sandwich. I saw him make it in the kitchen - he just sliced an onion, put the slices between a couple of slices of white bread, and had at it. No worries about cultural appropriation there. An onion sandwich is not something I’ve felt the need to try, despite liking onions. -D > On Dec 2, 2023, at 10:04 AM, Bob Rentfro via Mercedes > wrote: > > I believe my grandmother would have enjoyed those.
