I find that Dempseys serves some of the best vegetable sides in town. If they come out of a can first, so be it.

No. Baton Rouge. I have actually eaten there and enjoyed what I had. Fried catfish and jambalaya.



Okay, I'm thinking of Jack Dempsey's. Never knew of this place.

I don't know about that. Those ladies in the school lunch room can open up a mean can of green beans.

Honestly, the couple things we have that come out of a can are really good to me. The green beans come out of a can, but they taste nothing like canned green beans I've ever had at home/school/etc. They're really spicy.

I am unsure where the lima beans begin, but they're awesome too. When people make a disgusted face at lima beans being the veggie of the day, I make sure to let them know it's not the lima beans they're thinking of. They're mushy and spicy.

My favorite veggie side that we do is the baked squash and zucchini. When I describe it to people, I never use that name. I tell them that is is squash and zucchini baked in marinara sauce with a parmesan crust similar to a veggie lasagna. I sell way more than I say it that way

Properly seasoned canned green beans are good eats.

Nah, salt and pepper wouldn't make me think it's too spicy. I don't know what they use.

I'm not defending the can usage. As I said, I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE fresh green beans. Crunchy and string things stuck in your teeth and grassy tasting. So .. there's that

I'm a "gravy on the side" girl.

Gotta be honest.. and I feel terrible saying this.. but I prefer the chicken fried steak at another place which I won't name better. Our's is too spicy for me.

I CANNOT HANDLE TOO SPICY if you can't tell

Wrong. So good. You haven't had them done right. No sticking and stringy. They should use frozen instead of canned. But fresh are great when cooked properly.

Every time I say I don't like something, you say I haven't had it done right. In some cases, they may be right. But there are things that people just don't like.

My unhealthy arse likes mega sodium-ed canned veggies

Yeah, Sammy's is my favorite.

I used to LOVE the one at The Caterie because it burned down.
