Pride & Joy is a Southern Foodways Alliance film project that is coming to public television across the southeast this fall. The film is directed by Joe York and presented by the Southern Foodways Alliance and the University of Mississippi’s Media & Documentary Projects Center.

Left-handed hot dogs. Boiled peanuts. Pig ear sandwiches. Caviar. All of these are covered and more. I don’t know where they went in North Carolina but there is a lot of history and heritage of southern food throughout this documentary that I imagine that it is worth watching even.

I am the founding blogger of Eat It, North Carolina. I started Eat It, North Carolina because I am always looking for awesome, local restaurants in different places around North Carolina but have never been able to find one place on the Internet that lists them. I'm a recent graduate from East Carolina University & currently live in Greensboro. I like all types of food but am a sucker for Chinese and greasy spoons.
