    You don't have to wait until spring for ramps because most people who forage for them, also pickle them in jars. So if you know where to go, you can get them any time of the year

    West Virginian here, amazing job promoting the delicious cuisine my home state has to offer! Apple butter on a fresh Tudor's Biscuit World biscuit is an awesome combo. Not as awesome as the venison jerky or biscuit and gravy, now that's good eatin'! But until now, I had no clue what scrapple was! I lived here my whole life and just found out about it!

      Same here, she said it was in the Eastern part of the State. I moved to PA from WV for awhile and that's where I learned about scrapple. It's a Pennsylvania Dutch recipe, they brought over here with them. It's a breakfast food you fry like spam. It's nasty as all hell LOL. There are some RUclips videos that show how it's made. (It's not for the faint of heart LOL)

    I love me some scrapple. I didn’t know that it was a food from West Virginia. I first learned about it in New Jersey. I assumed that it was something from the south, like South Carolina or Georgia. I live in the northeast, and in the past 2-3 years I’ve found it in my supermarket. So I don’t have to go to South Jersey to get it anymore. I just don’t try to think about what it’s made from, because I love it so much. 😆😆

    Love you guys and your videos. Please take this in the spirit it is intended… West Virginians are very proud of their state. But we get super annoyed if someone refers to our state as Western Virginia. You skipped up at one point and said western Virginia. You could do a whole video about this topic itself. We hate it when people respond to you saying you are from WV by responding “ oh. I have a cousin from Richmond “. Our response is usually quite swift.. “ I am not from Virginia “. Lol
    Love you guys. I know you can appreciate local norms and giving good advice to travellers. Xoxo

    Southern cuisine is amazing. Despite being a chain (granted it's a local chain but still...), Tudor's Biscuit World food is incredible. From the buttery biscuits themselves to the variety of biscuit combinations to the sandwiches to the dinner platters, it seldom disappoints. Chicken fried steak (or country fried) is one of the best meals anywhere, bar none.
