A place for everyone to share their homecooked meals. Jarred spaghetti sauce and boxed noodles absolutely. Ground your own mix of chuck and wagyu for your steakhouse burger with garlic aioli and seasonal greens perfect. Frozen pizza, TV dinners nah.
Rules: Don't be a dick. Keep it food related. No advertising.

Actually the name finds its origins in union organizing and worker solidarity.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Po%27_boy
Unless you can show me a source, I'm going to conclude that the only place its considered a racist term is between your ears, cus when I go to LA, its still a po'boy.
If you want to continue using the racist term go ahead, but please don’t use it around black people (like me).
Just show me one source saying that its considered a racist term. Cus I've been to the French Market and gotten po'boys and you not knowing they got their name during a workers strike to feed "the poor boys on the line" might just be you being ahistorical. I'm open to any sources or articles. Any time now.
