There are definitely parallels between growing up working class in Appalachia and here in Northeast Texas. The shopping class divide is real. I also remember Supermarket Sweep.
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed reading this story and I have a whole new...not exactly respect but rather concern over the process of cream corn lol. Kids today have no idea the things we went through. Looking forward to reading more of your stories.

Thank you so much for reading our story. Your an amazing writer and an amazing person -- We would never wish creamed corn on you.
AJ Jacobs led me here. This is fantastic, and I cannot for the memoir!!
Thank you for reading -- A memoir might be a while down the road, but a new story will be up soon.
My favorite bit (from a post full of favorite bits): the memory of the kids competing to select the unlabeled can(s) du jour. Love it!
Thank you for reading -- We all knew that Mom would pick Walter -- We never had a chance. :)
Great read!
Thanks for reading. We will have another story up soon.
