Remember red "string" licorice that looked like shoelaces rather than the fatter ones?

Twizzlers and other brands sell pull and peel shoelace licorice also avail. at WW.

I remember eating fried cornmeal mush with syrup. I also accompanied Mom to the local dairy farmer for fresh milk, in gallon jugs. She had him dip off a couple of jugs of cream to make butter. One dinner that we had often was beef tongue, which I never did acquire a taste for. One special meal was beef liver and onions. Occasionally I see it in a restaurant now and then, but not often. Of course everything we grew was canned. Since we raised hogs the freezer was always full.

When milking the cows the cats would come by and want me to squirt a stream of milk their way. Talk about fresh milk. I also filled their bowls mixed with dry dog food. Between that and keeping the mice and snake population down, it made for the great barn cats.

Yes I did the same, but sure didn't have any money for dry dog food. I don't think the cat would of got any chance at all if it had milk in it, we would be eating it.
