I've been trying to just buy some lemons and cut up a wedge, and I try to order water with lemon in restaurants. I can sympathize with your sister; I'm trying to break a pop habit (did a Southernism pop out there?) and it's not easy! So police away .

The greatest soul food I have ever had was in a place that by appearance, was the diviest dive of divedom in a divey neighborhood. Don't judge a book by its cover (usually)!

Oh I see. Yup..that sure is the south! I had you in Ohio in my mind. Must have been the spaghetti topped with chili convo that we all had recently.

Pop too!? You and New England folks roll that out. That may be the only thing that yall have in common with New England, by the way.

Dive joints, hole in the wall places, run down, whatever...does not keep me away if the "aroma" gets me. That of course and the place needs to be clean or we are talking about a death wish. But run down never stopped me. Especially travelling cross country.
