Because most of Appalachia were abolitionists
Look at how they voted in the 1800s, all of Appalachia voted completely different to the rest of the south

Jokes aside, consider that the geographic Appalachian mountain range actually extends north into Atlantic Canada, and arcs around the Atlantic rim into Scotland, then south into west-North Africa.

Is the Piedmont part of Appalachia? My ex was from there and insisted the area was Appalachia but the dumb cunt's family said that it's just its own thing (which my ex claimed they do because they think they're better than the hillbillies from Appalachia proper).

>>19297985
You don't need thousands of slave hands inna mountains.

>>19297974
Appalachia really doesn't have a cuisine. It's mostly typical Scots-Irish and Bong food.

>>19298121
I think it's probably it's own, yet related, thing.
Many large cities exist in that region due to the geography, whereas properly appalachian settlements will be culturally distinct due to less flow of resources and people from the east.

This fried and hush puppies
some beer of course

:D

He should have posted a picture of meth. City slickers use opiates whereas hillbillies love meth.

>>19298142
Fair enough. I didn't really have an opinion on it not being from the US at all, but I thought it was an odd thing for a family to argue about.

>>19297974
Anyway, if my ex' family are any indication of what they cook and eat in Appalachia as Appalachia-adjacent people, then it seems to be lots of stewed dishes of various sorts with drop dumplings. And a lot of surprising use of tomato. Tomato cobbler, for example (both sweet and savoury versions), or adding tomato to biscuits and gravy (which they'd make with bacon instead of sausage for some reason).

>>19298192
The opioid "epidemic" started in West Virginia, tho.

>>19298363
Yeah that anon doesn't know shit, that whole region is completely btfo by both opiates and meth

>>19298004
Up until year 2000 they voted Democrat because WV is a very pro-union state. That changed because they decided to vote against their own interests and since 2000 they've increased their poverty rate by three fold. Republicans vote against their own interests and accuse others of what they're guilty of every time.

Nice. A genuinely informative answer. I bought some heirloom green bean seeds this year and the packet said something about drying them for "leather britches". I was terribly confused. Now I know. Thanks anon.

>>19297985
WV was carved from Virginia. Their goal was to avoid the war that the north was starting with the south. They're sorta-kinda like switzerland in that respect. When the war ended, they didn't have to deal with reparations much, either. Good people, just hope they can avoid the influx of fags from DC that's currently plaguing Virginia, North Carolina, and Maryland.

>>19297985
They are very Christian and did not believe in slaves. Only jews and greedy atheists owned slaves in the south. Only 2% owned slaves.

>>19297980
I have family in Alabama that eat racoon all the time...

I travel through Appalachia and generally try to bring my own food where I can. The grocery stores are stocked with kinda cheap crappy food mostly. You can't get the same kind of fruit, bread, hot dogs, sliced turkey. It's all kinda not as good. And the restaurants tend to have big menus and very little creativity and just are processed foods. There are exceptions, great ones, but they are exceptions.

I'd go with ramps. I have a bunch and need to use them up. They are wild spring onions you can buy them at gas stations and convenience stores in the spring in the country in some places.

>>19297982
Just the best. Amazing hot, amazing room temp, amazing cold.

>>19299289
that's not true either
it started because the US restricted drug imports from afghanistan to punish the soviets,
afghanistan was producing most of the morphine rich poppy supply
instead, production changed to thebaine rich poppies, thebaine cant be directly abused by itself, and tasmania came to produce the raw material for these semi-synthetic drugs (oxycodone, hydrocodone) that now dominate the market because they are cheap to produce and evade drug importation quotas because thebaine isn't as strictly regulated
this is a product of drug laws and it didn't happen just in one place
WV just had a lot of of older retired manual workers with severe pain and very few physical therapists, and pain pills are cheap
nobody forced WV people to take pain pills

Hey guys, /out/ checking in. I've done Appalachian Trail '12, '14, '19, and I'm preparing to start my first post-COVID journey this year--so I know what I'm talking about. My trail name is Dank Turtle, though you AT veterans might also know me as Bogey or Dirty Dan! Anyway, us Appalachian folk mostly survive on a combination of trail mix and organic kombucha that we get at the regular trail outposts. Some "old-school" guys might go fishing or even hunt (yuck) but that's not really part of Biden's America, ya dig? If you get really desperate you could always forage for bark and grubs (Thunberg approved!), but it's always safer to just wait for the next town where your official TrailCrate™ will be waiting (guaranteed delivery by Amazon Prime). My last TrailCrate™ featured some certified fair-trade chocolate from ethnic minority artisans in Oregon--including a few CBD edibles since much of the Trail is now in Legal states! That's really appreciated, because we Appalachian folks really appreciate a little "relaxation" at our weekly Rick & Morty watch parties. That's right, the Trail is now 90% covered by 5G (essential for HD Insta vlogging). Anyway, I encourage you to visit our humble native land, to partake of the smash burgers and extra-hoppy IPAs, and please just politely ignore any of the ancestral troglodytes who might not be driving EVs.

ITT: butt injured anons crying about a region that they've never been to

the best pizza i have ever had, and i have been across the world. i am currently stationed in germany (serving israel) and the few times i have been to italy, the pizza does not compare to back home. who would have thought that the faggoty pizza that is all sauce, barely any cheese, and burnt all over the crust is not worth the hype? props to any of you lucky enough to live near a defelice bros pizza joint.

>>19300470
inb4 "eww cold cheese"
the cheese isn't cold you fucking idiots. there can be other cheeses on pizza aside from mozzarella. the appalachian pizza from the ohio valley follows traditional roman style tray pizza recipies that the immigrants brought over here forever ago. the cheese is provolone, and it melts entirely differently than mozzarella. it tastes better too.

roadkill isn't bad, if you can't catch anything I mean, most of the time it feels better to kill random squirrels and deer and shit so it doesn't feel quite as diseased (not that you should eat deer, they can give you a lot of REALLY bad disease, but I guess all of it could) but i've never eaten raccoon. is it good? i live in pennsylvania so deer and squirrel are easier to find just running around.

>>19297974
Moonshine, ramps, rabbits, hot water corn bread, chicken. My grandfather was from the smoky mountains, he used to say there were cannibals down there so I guess people too.

>>19300948
It was not heated up in the microwave. The cheese does not melt like mozzarella because its provolone. Provolone is a drier cheese, it isn't as oily as mozzarella so it doesn't melt as well or leave as much grease behind. The pepperoni is also a different than standard type. The pizza shops back home don't buy the supermarket shit. Ohio is far from a flyover state.

My grandfather came from the smoky mountains, his mom had a hut on top of a hill that they all lived in growing up, and he'd go back there and stay for up to a half of the year in the summer. He said they would occasionally find stacks of human bones in the woods. Said the sheriff would make his way up there like once a year with pictures of missing people that they thought may have been traveling through the area in the last several months. I asked him if he ever recognized someone from the pictures and he got this fucked up look on his face and stopped talking about it. He did say it was dangerous where they were at, not just the miles of wilderness or the wild life but he said people would walk off the sides of the mountains at night not knowing where they were going. I guess they climbed like 30ft into a vertical cave because their brother fell in it. He also said people would take corners too hard going around corners in their cars and just go flying off the roads. Basically just saying that it made sense for a relative lot of people to disappear in that area. But he said they would be out in the woods and find stacks of bones, not like a mountain lion got after someone or a snake bit them and they just dropped dead.

You’re dancing up retarded liberal viewpoints as “pro-white and Christian” when all you’re advocating for is abolitionist nigger-loving BS. (Same thing kikes did with MLK in public school after that nigger got put down). There is NOTHING WRONG with stronger intelligent people owning others. You naturally have a queer drive towards equality but still want to sound “friggin based” so you try to claim that Jews were the only ones that owned slaves despite the fact that southern Antebellum was one of the golden ages for whites. Your mindset suggests you come from slaves as well.

I didn't live in West Virginia long and only along a travel route, so the only local stuff I got was fried fish. Which I don't mind because I've spent a ton of my life in Minnesota and miss it dearly. Never trust a man or woman who doesn't love freshwater fish.

If it /is/ true, and I'm not saying that it is, that would mean that each slave owner had an average of 33 slaves each, which sounds accurate.
3,5000,000-4,000,000 total slaves in the south.
5,5000,000-6,000,000 whites in the south, 2% of which would be 110,000-120,000 IE 29-36 slaves each, which averages to about 33.

My point is that there's so fucking many of them, not that any are poison.
Learn 2 read.

This is a long shot, but I remember about a year or two ago there was an anon describing his bizarre experiences living deep in the Appalachians for some field work or something like that. It was well written and unsettling. I’ve tried searching the archives but nothing.

>>19302490
Not either of them, but I really doubt:
>>19299161
>Only jews and greedy atheists owned slaves in the south
For starters, it seems unlikely 2% of the south weren't christian back then.
Also, both the old and new testaments support slavery.

>>19297985
Too poor to own slaves. That's literally it. East Tennessee (also in appalachia) tried to break off the same way but were too far south and their plan got foiled. There were other places within the south that remained anti-secession but they were usually smaller, those are the two big ones. Also note Kentucky stayed Union

>>19302938
>so fucking many of them
so what? because of American labeling laws you can't just list pepperoni you yo must list everything in that pepperoni

so pizza-rolls ingredients can't just say:
flour
yeast
salt
oil
mozzarella
tomato sauce
pepperoni
chicken
garlic
onion
paprika
which is already a long list without listing each sub ingredient

>>19302949
Give us a QRD at least

>>19302498
It's a PA Dutch thing, not Appalachian. If they eat something similar in the hillcountry, well that's just swell, but I don't think it would be called the same thing. See: goetta.

>>19299161
>Only jews and greedy atheists owned slaves in the south.
This isn't even remotely true.

>>19301267
You gonna try serving Israel at home? Maybe with a shakshuka, but certainly not with pizza.

>>19302949
Cannibals again?

>>19303697
Especially considering that Jewish people in the American south, who at the time were mostly Sephardic IE not the bagel-munching New York stereotype Americans think of when they think "Jew," made up about 0.4% of the total confederate population. Furthermore, Jews of the time weren't typically moneyed and therefore couldn't afford a single slave nevermind a plantation; many entered the US by indenture.
As atheism was extremely taboo in the mid-19th century, this would imply that the vast majority of this supposed 2% were church-going Christians.

>peach nehi
I used to call it neh-hee, turns out its called knee-high.

>>19303742
Is this some Mormon-Appalachian dish?

>>19303735
Maybe Anon's talking about the guy who was doing a linguistic and anthropological study of the region describing how some of the people, those living on government programs and without proper employment, had so much free time that they basically just spent their days doing fucked up shit like torturing a bear. He described how one family basically made a picnic out of watching their dogs fight a black bear who was too fat and slow to climb up a tree to get away.

>>19303743
You're thinking "Nephi," IINM.

You have to harvest it before it starts to turn red and then boil the shit out of it several times to leech out the poison. I don't want to risk fucking it up.

>someone shot down the internet lines AGAIN trying to shoot a bird
The irony being that, IIRC, WVU was the first school in the US, if not the world, to take applications online. When I read that, I imagined the Mtn Dew hillbilly from the old, ancient ass bottles going "nao wut in tarnation is uh own lonn??"

>hick
Because hicks didn't own slaves. Slaves were owned by descendant of bong nobility. You know the people who were taught they are superior due to family magic and should be ruling over others.
My in-laws are one of those families, they still get invites to the royal functions because they are 9000nth or so in line of succession, their DNA tests shows grand-grand-grand pappy raped some slaves. They feel like shit about it, but it makes me kek. Same ways I'm part German, great-grandma always spoke fondly of German troops about how they were honest and traded tools for food unlike Russians. Later I found out I'm 1/8th German, so yeah, guess one of them traded his hammer for her loaf of bread.

>>19307695
>9000nth or so in line of succession
lol
Are you George Santos? lmao
That's not how the line works. First and foremost, they must be direct descendants of the electress Sophia of Hanover. Secondly, they must be in full communion with the church. Furthermore, the line is nowhere near that long. The longest, though wildly inaccurate (since it doesn't take religion into account) list of potential successors is shy of 6000 people. For example, when Prince Philip was still alive, had he outlived Elizabeth, he would have never been eligible to the throne for two reasons: 1) he is not descended of Sophia and 2) he was baptised in the Greek Orthodox tradition rather than Church of England.
Next, the Kreugers who, other than Archie and Lilibet, are the Americans with the highest position in the line (somewhere like 100th, IIRC) and they don't even get invites to "royal functions."
You really ought to come up with more believable bullshit.

>>19298051
They just don't like you and hide all the good stuff in hopes that you'll get board and leave.

>>19298004
Yeah, there's a tonne of agriculture in the mountains. West Virginia, famous for its agricultural exports. Not mineing, not digging into the earth to remove valuable rocks.

>>19299641
Really need a qrd on red-eye gravy. I've never tried it. If Yanks do red-eye, I never met one who made it.

The northwestern part of West Virginia, where most of the population lived, was very pro-Union. Southeastern West Virginia was much more pro-Confederate. When the vote for statehood happened, the most pro-Confederate counties weren't allowed to vote. What schools don't teach is that West Virginia was not universally pro-Union. Over a dozen of my West Virginian ancestors served in the Civil War, and all but one were Confederates.

>>19308095
>pro-Union.
those words had different meanings back then

>>19303741
You're literally just lying.

>>19307191
it wasn't red yet and I had looked up exactly what you said online cus I had taught myself bits and pieces of foraging. I said "I looked it up and learned you have to boil it blah blah" and all he did was "yeah cus it's poisonous if you don't boil it" and that's all he said. The issue here is the complete refusal to transmit information without prying their jaws open first.

>>19308023
In our family we always made red-eye gravy by putting in instant coffee granules AFTER you had cooked the country ham, then adding some water and stirring it up. It was pretty thin so adding some sort of starch or thickener would probably make the texture better

Poke
Ramps
Greens
Kilt lettuce
Stale cornbread in milk
Fatback/streaked meat
Peanuts and coke

Pawpaws

>that thread

>>19307856
It's simply deglazing the pan with strong coffee after cooking country ham. That's it. Big slabs of ham with the bone still in and a fair amount of fat work best. Biscuit slices don't make enough fond usually because they cook too fast.

>>19307933
Nah, that's a southwestern dish, you would want the moth-man burger.

>>19297974

I've made vinegar pie a few times.

It's a simple custard pie in the same family as things like shoofly pie, pecan pie, and chess pie, except that the key ingredient is vinegar (usually apple cider vinegar), which adds some nice sourness. I did it with balsamic once, which completely invalidates the point of it being poor people food, but honestly I preferred with apple cider.

For my money, I'd rather use lemon juice (making lemon meringue pie, basically), but it was still nice for some variety...even though I couldn't get anyone to even try it once I told them what it was.

weird in the Smoky's every house had a garden with a few rows of corn, tomatoes, peppers, okra etc.

>>19317484
You do realize there are different peoples and terrains in Appalachia. There was once a government program of giving people in southwestern wva goats because someone figured you can’t farm here but you could have herds of animals. That never even started. Basically the area that hugs the river from pike county ky to Ohio border and from Lexington to Charleston wv is it’s own specific area within Appalachia that is even more different than the rest of Appalachia

>>19316740
Maybe it depends on the type of boar and where it lives. Doesn't American have some other species of boar that's weird and tiny and unlike ours? Skunkpig, it's called, I think.
I'm from Italy. Boar is top game, second perhaps only to female ibex (and that's only if you're the sort who likes its extremely strong flavour).

>>19317478
Real talk, would you forever get treated like foreign carpetbagger/Californian taking advantage of cheap real estate? (Some of us are flaming autists, and I'm not sure how many West Virginia coalmen watch Naruto, much less would appreciate the gender-swapped Naruto vinyl on my JDM Subaru.)

>>19316911
they do make it at the gas station, they're delicious

>>19317504
You might be surprised. In the coal miners union, our local has monthly anime watch parties, usually followed by drifting contests on the SICK mountain twistys. The local cops dgaf and usually even block off the roads to cheer us on while downing a few of our illegally-imported Strong Zeros. The sheriff is a little tsundere, but I won him over after writing a J-pop style ballad about his oldest daughter's daisy dukes, you might think it sounds ecchi but it was so sincere, I posted an AMV to Youtube, we're actually engaged to be married this summer. Japan has a strong appreciation of Mountain culture, there is more commonality than you think. We are building a full Appalachian-Nipponese crossover house with onsen, zen garden, moonshine still for high-powered sake, the works. Being a West Virginia Weeabo is truly the best of both worlds.

>>19317501
depends on what they eat
back before the blight the wild boar fed exclusively on American chestnuts and were rumored to be better then Iberian pork which fed on acorns

>>19317534
They must have tasted like ours. Boars in Italy (outside of ones that live in or near cities) mostly eat chestnuts and acorns in the autumn and shoots, leaves and tubers during the rest of the year. Also truffles and mushrooms.

>>19317527
The song "Country Roads" was a super common song for Niplets to learn on piano in the 70s through the 90s for some reason. idk ytf Nipnong parents forced their kids to learn piano that way, but that was the thing.

>>19317555
Checked. Joking aside, I have encountered similar unexpected familiarity with that song in other foreign lands. Props to John Denver I guess. As kids we knew West Virginia primarily as the butt of stupid jokes. As adults we learned about the profound beauty, the even more profound sadness of generational poverty (lacking the benefit of urban poverty's PR campaigns), the deep immigrant history ("America before America" shit), the almost unimaginable environmental destruction, and through it all, the normal lives of normal folks who were born there and don't really get what all the memes are about. (Plus cheap cigarettes, hoorah.) In summary, if you are from California, FUCK OFF, they're full.

>>19317574
>generational poverty
You make it sound simple. As if some people can’t be blamed for troubles of their own making at all. I know of a technical trade school that literally drives the students all over the place for free. But most can’t be bothered to get a trade. Why work when you can do oxy or heroin? Don’t give me shit about opioid crisis either. It’s been like this since 50s. They would do pill parties even then.
West Virginia has tons of problems and a lot of those problems are people shooting them selves in the foot.

>>19317527
now this is a fanfic i can get behind

>>19317586
This. If you need any further evidence, consider: exit polling at the 2020 elections indicated that at least 86% of West Virginian men were Asuka-fags. Even if you factor in their genetic predisposition toward gingers due to Scots-Irish ancestry, that clearly indicates a problem. By their very nature, Asukafags enter into problematic relationships KNOWING THAT THEY ARE PROBLEMS but unable to resist due to low impulse control and the desire to be dominated. FFS, there was even a petition to change the WV state motto to "The Asuka State", fortunately it was quashed in lower assembly due to most petitioners being unable to sign their legal names. It's true that blue states (Rei states) have their own problems, but at the end of the day, who do you think could really be trusted to run to school with your toast in their mouth?
