Great video. I m 55 yrs of age , I’m a black Canadian Nova Scotian women. But I’ve lived in Toronto , Canada 🇨🇦 for yrs. we all grew up on this type of food. My mother, grandmother &great grandma are all gone now.R.I.P 🙏🏽 this borough a tear to my eye but a warm feeling to my heart as it brought back so many wonderful memories. We all still cook all these soul foods here in Canada 🇨🇦 . Sending a thank you to the lady that shared a part of our history. I learnt something new ;:: the hoe cake. Thanks for sharing. May god bless y’all. stay safe! God bless! 🙏🏽 love&prayers from Canada 🇨🇦❤️🙏🏽
I grew up eating fried corn meal mush for breakfast and it was delicious. My mom would put it in a slow fry skillet and it would simmer and get crispy on the edges. Put some butter and syrup on it and I much preferred that to pancakes.
Dulan's still around, honestly, they are a lot better than M&M. I think Stevies on the strip is still around too, moved from Crenshaw to somewhere on Pico Blvd.
Would love to have finished hearing what the class heard! From Louisiana and understand about the cultural mixing of food ! Must say I learned something from this too! Glad to see things being highlighted about real ppl !
This was before all the scripting and plastic bodies. Genuine smiles! Lmao, people get around good food and lose all their manners. Glad to see all these real people like the ones I grew up with that cared about learning their own history! She said slaves about 300 times tho. “Cringe “ Now we know the correct term is enslaved Africans. These kidnapped confused and tortured people, had names and cultures, long before they were illegally stolen from their land.
What so sad about the story is that the enslaved black people were not allowed to read or write they had no civil rights and they didn't have their own lives. They were property of the united states of america. I thank God I wasn't before back then. Our ancestors were literally in HELL!!!!
As an African living in Africa I remember seeing African women picking edible weed in my neighborhood when I was a kid so that is to say we already knew how to live off the land before they stole us. Yes, we weren't sold like they would have you believe. We were stolen.
Very informative however we as African Americans decendants of ENSLAVED kings and QUEENS must learn to prepare traditional recipes in a healthier way. We must eat to live eat to enjoy these foods without ingredients that contributes to high blood pres, sugar diabetes. Health is our true wealth. 💚🥑🥬🌶🍅🍗🌮🥩🥚
That man interviewing is hoovering to close over the diners as they eat. He need to back up ʘ‿ʘ. He is asking all the questions abt southern and he sounds very back water himself.
THAT SISTA WAS ABOUT TO CUT YOUR FINGER OFF HUELL FOR REACHING OVER IN THAT CORNBREAD JACK. IN THE BLACK CULTURE YOU DON'T SO THAT OR GET YOUR HAND SLAPPED OR BEHIND WHOOPED JACK HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
With all respect it makes me a bit irritated to see this interviewer asking the most obvious questions as how he’s standing that close to there food and speaking saliva I’m sure touched there plates ignorance will never go away
Huell Howser died many years ago but, was an iconic PBS story teller. Mr Howser made thousands of videos about little known places in California, furthermore he was incredible human and, has been missed by generations. Your weird obsessions about germs is completely stupid.
This lady is precious
Love Huell howser wish I’d have discovered him way before but I wasn’t born yet much respect 💯💯💯👑👑👑
I miss this guy...thank you for posting
When I moved to California I learned so much from this dear man.
Gem of a video, time capsule to say the least. Customers were absolute characters, reminds me of days gone by.
Wow kids are well behaved! Impressive back in the day
This is a Gem of a video, thanks so much for sharing. Glad I found this.

I grew up eating all of that delicious food. There are all in my old neighborhood.
I grew up eating fried corn meal mush for breakfast and it was delicious. My mom would put it in a slow fry skillet and it would simmer and get crispy on the edges. Put some butter and syrup on it and I much preferred that to pancakes.
yeah, I miss him very much as well.A true gentleman.
Great video!!!
This is awesome! These ladies are a national treasure, not a Woke agenda in their heart.
Keep your agenda to yourself.
We luv soul food. In Mexico we called chitlens tripas delicious.
Great looking students well mannered and all loved greens.
God bless huell
At M&M soul food restaurant the food looks delicious!! as well as Dulan soul food dishes look devine.
This episode was aired in Early 1994
Sad how all the M&M's restaurants are gone! We use to go eat breakfast their bck n the day!!! LA just not the same anymore!!!
What happened? Who has the recipes?
Dulan's still around, honestly, they are a lot better than M&M. I think Stevies on the strip is still around too, moved from Crenshaw to somewhere on Pico Blvd.
U got that right.m&m on Avalon. I came to Cali 52 yrs ago. I love where I’m from Mississippi
La things has changed
@@MadStyle1911 Dulan’ passes. I know one up the street on Manchester/LaBrea,think the other one on Crenshaw or Longbeach
Do you remember May's Soul food ? Crenshaw in the 60's just before Hyde Park. Their food was the good.
Would love to have finished hearing what the class heard! From Louisiana and understand about the cultural mixing of food ! Must say I learned something from this too! Glad to see things being highlighted about real ppl !
CHITTER-TER- LINGS..😂😂😂
LAWDY.
I wonder if she is still alive alot of wisdom
This video was made in 1996..
I was hoping to see the camera man eat, like we saw him eat his menudo.
AMAZING SOUL FOOD THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜 AWESOME BEAUTIFUL ✨, GREAT VIDEO,
These are two beautiful women.
I miss Huell Howser.😔
Huell had a great personality!
Thank you. This was very educational. I've heard of hoe cake..However, the history of the food making. Very good...
I appreciate the history lesson 😊 Soul Food is not known to be healthy but it’s so damn good and is recommended to be eaten in moderation 😁
IT'S HEALTHY AS LONG AS YOU EAT IT IN MODERATION
Delicious 💕
Where is this at.?
It would have been nice if she had said how she cooked the greens. I am sure that Huell ate a lot of that food growing up in TN.
She probably did, she's very thorough in her presentation, it just unfortunately didn't make it to the final cut.

Thats right young man we were stolen 😉
Every Historian disagrees with you.
We’re you stolen?

That's the charm of Huell and Louis. They get up all in your business with a smile.
I call it a knife edge of powder
Subtract the yams and the greens, and the rest is a slave plate.
GREENS AND YAMS ARE EVERYDAY IN AFRICA

Man I so agree
In one of the other episodes, the interviewee gets mad and tells him not to touch the food.
Maybe you should chill, you sound intense.
I totally agree,,,he's breathing on their food and asking the dumbest questions,,,otherwise I loved this
