i had never even heard of okra when i moved there so when i got invited to a southern baptist cookout i loaded my plate thinking it was popcorn chicken and in the one and only time in my life when biting into something that was not what i expected i wasn't disgusted.

It's mostly about politeness and engagement. In the deep south or midwest you're much more likely to find talkative cashiers, people greeting you as you walk by, and things like that.

What is the difference between Eastern and Western NC BBQ?
In North Carolina, eastern-style N.C. barbecue is known for its vinegar base and peppery bite, which makes it lighter -- and spicier -- than its western counterpart. Western-style, sometimes called "Lexington style" barbecue, features a rich, sweet sauce typically made with butter, sugar and ketchup.

>Don't know where this meme of rural people being nice is.
Here's where it comes from. There are two main factors.

1. Business interactions: cashiers, clerks, attendants, and various (non-tipping) service people. On the east coast you're highly likely to encounter sullen immigrant and other minority ESLs or even sometimes poor whites who seem to hate life and barely make eye contact. Alternately in higher-end stores you get stiff and formal old gay dudes or airhead thots who can be rude. Meanwhile in the midwest you're more likely to encounter a genuinely cheerful person who smiles and is friendly and helpful during any random transaction.

2. Street interaction: People walk around east coast cities like you don't exist. They ignore you and expect you to take care of yourself. No holding doors, no greeting or nodding to each other on the street, nothing. This is quite rational behavior in the dense city environments because there are so many people in close proximity that constantly greeting and acknowledging everyone would quickly become exhausting. This mentality bleeds into suburbs and busy villages nearby, and there can be times when the mind-your-own business mentality crosses the line into rudeness. Ever been run over and squawked at by a Jewish Yenta in a supermarket? In the midwest people are just generally more courteous, friendly and open during public interactions.
