They just dont know how to do it southern style and get no flavor in it.
Southern cooking means if you're cooking something healthy, like say green beans for instance, you throw some fatty pig meat in the pot to add some flavor.
Or okra....batter it with some corn meal and FRY it.
Peas benefit from some pig meat in the pot, get 'em nice and soupy and soft and then pour 'em over crumbled up corn bread and season with some home made pepper sauce.
