When I was in the military occasionally they would serve okra. As I would be standing in line to get chow there would always be at least one Northerner who would say, "What the hell is okra?"
I'd shoot back, "It's a vegetable you ignorant Yankee."
I would then say, "And you intentionally put that shit in your mouth?"
I would then take a heaping bowl full only to throw it away to ensure I didn't see it again at midrats.
Truthfully, I can munch on fried okra. Traditionally prepared it has the consistency of snot.
