As you can see, alot of those I didn't know. But the ones that I did, I knew because my mom (aunts, uncles, grandparents) are from Alabama. In the South, there's so much shit like that. The have substitutes for things you wouldn't believe.

*For example, (those of you who cook meatloaf) if you happened to run out of Bread Crumbs, just smash a bunch of Corn Flakes together, it'll work just the same. Or:

*If you have a bad tooth ache, just drink a mouthful of E & J Brandy, but don't swallow it. Just hold it in your mouth for about 5-10 mins., and the pain will decrease or go away.
