New Podcast Posting: Paying Homage to RC & Moon Pies

Someone mentions Southern Cuisine and you likely say BBQ. Right ?

Then, there’s grits, chittlins, Cajun Cooking and more.

But there’s a group of enthusiasts of another Southern tradition - RC Cola and Moon Pies. Some consider this the original fast food - both Moon Pies and the RC Cola provided bigger portions for less money, as a result it became a quick meal of choice by many workers.

Thousands annually gather the third weekend in June in a Tennessee community called Bell Buckle, normally population of 406. In this podcast we hear what the big deal is and how they celebrate. It can be found at our companion podcast site:
