Just got back from local major market Ralphs (Kroger child). The 12 oz frozen vegetables are on sale for $1 so I picked up a spinach and then the black-eyed pea caught my eye....really????? Southern Style- what cuz they only eat them "down there" - ingredients = peas + water!!!

I wonder if the bowl of beans on the package is what is sometimes referred to as a "serving suggestion"xD

Cape Town - At the foot of a flat topped mountain with a tablecloth covering it.

Some time ago we had Johnny Cash, Bob Hope and Steve Jobs. Now we have no Cash, no Hope and no Jobs. Please don't let Kevin Bacon die.

But it is just a bowl -0-beans. The serving suggestion should be for "Hoppin' John" or "Texas Caviar"  -check out those US sub specialties!
