Just a short, quick one, and not about a complainer.
Hamburger steaks are common around here. I didn’t realize that the term might be regional until after I’d been asked a few times what they were. I was still caught by surprise during one lunch, when a woman pointed to our bus driver’s hamburger steak and asked, “How much of that is steak, and how much of that is hamburger?” 🤔😂
The bus driver and I just looked at each other, not sure if she was serious or not. I managed to respond with a straight face, but by the hardest.
ETA: Another surprise were the people who’d never heard of black-eyed peas. I know that they’re popular in the south, but was surprised when people asked what they were, after seeing them on a menu. And why are they called black-eyed peas.
