I can see a Yankee not knowing, but jes not knowing (as a displaced Southerner) is inexcusable...

I thought the Yankees sold them lol

I thought the Yankees sold them lol

But at $8.00, no one actually buys them to find out what they are!

good point, Tuffy...

They kinda remind me of White Fence Farm fritters.

At which you can probably get 3-4 dozen for $8.00.

Hushpuppies (Cornbread Balls) are a savory, starch-based food made from cornmeal batter that is deep fried or baked in small ball or sphere shapes, or occasionally oblong or ring shapes. Hushpuppies are a comfort food and frequently served as a side dish.

Their roundness qualifies them for this topic.

Wait for it...

Not even close. White Fence Farm fritters are 100 times better than any hushpuppy I've ever ate. Would love to have the recipe for them

You have to admire how the Reds are going about their business. They have an exciting, hard-playing team on the field, balanced pitching, and they have Chapman still lurking in the minors. They could give the Cards all they want to the finish line.

Can't have a fish fry without hush puppies, and if there's jalapeno in them, all the better...

Mmm. . . hushpuppies. There are no hushpuppies in Southern California.

Doesn't Red Lobster serve them with every Ultimate Feast?

The San Diego Padres are looking for a place to relocate their AAA franchise from one of my favorite cities, Portland, Oregon. Decrepit PGE Park there is being renovated into, of all things, a soccer complex.

For Portland, it’s a classic case of “If you promise to move here, we will build a park for you” versus “If you build a new park, we will consider you”. They want a major league franchise and with the economy the way it is, you can forget expansion.

As the article indicates, any move to Tucson would be only temporary.

haha keyes, thank you for correcting me.

Hadn't thought about that place or those fritters in who knows how long. Now I've got a massive craving for them. Thanks a lot Jay ;)
