Good ol' Southern cooking killed my mother at the ripe old age of 52. I am really trying not to follow in her footsteps.

Good ol' Southern cooking killed my mother at the ripe old age of 52.

With all respect to your mother, my granny died at the age of 96 on a diet that included lard in everything. I, on the other hand, had a bypass at age 50. You play the hand you're dealt, I think.

Personally, I think part of what kept my granny alive so long was that she never ate a thing with preservatives in it until she was probably 80.
