Plastic Ain’t Southern: Health, Home, and Eating Clean Without Going Broke

“Y’all, it don’t matter how fresh your collards are if you’re storing ‘em in something leechin’ poison into the greens. That Tupperware from 1983 might just be the villain in your kitchen.”
Cornbread & Buttermilk pull back the curtain on BPA, microplastics, and how even a humble sandwich bag can do harm if we ain’t paying attention.
But they don’t just warn you—they walk you through affordable ways to keep your food safe and your wallet happy. From mason jars to cast iron, glass bowls to bulk beans, they show you how Southern wisdom and old-school thrift can still feed your family with love and health.
Because down here, we believe in feeding your people—body and soul.
Velma’s Short intro song.
