So the Alton Brown food marathon continues after a pit stop at Waffle House, about 50 miles out of New Orleans. So we had to sample just a small selection of
- Apple Fritter
- Glazed
- Cinnamon Swirl
- Chocolate Sprinkles
- Pine Cone
And yes they were good. And no we did get you one. The food marathon continue onto the Old Country Store, just on Highway 61 at Lorman where we had simply the best fried chicken on the planet. Dawn walked about with a signed menu.
We hauled ourselves back into the car (it had been less than an hour since the donuts) and then drove on to Vickburg, where the longest siege during the American Civil War occurred. By all accounts, only the black residents celebrated the 4th July until the end of WWII because Vicksburg surrendered to the Union Army on the 4th. Memories last a long time around these parts.
Visit to the Coke museum was a bit of a disappointment, but we jumped in the car and did another 90 miles before we found another nights refuge in Greenville, Mississippi.
