At the gr8 one, I think it is because the north has more varied cooking than the South.
Down here we have bbq, BACON, butter, milk eggs and potatoes. I almost forgot chicken fried steak and gravy.
Also the heat in the south causes food to have less calories than the same meal up north. So the southerners can afford to eat all those rich foods.
I guess I should add the caveat: if you are a vegan, do not try to find food at a southern funeral luncheon. The vegetables will either be smothered in butter or bacon and all the desserts will have milk, cream and eggs.
Now seriously I think it is because the south is a region and the North is various states. Also southern cooking has a specific Dewey decimal number, there is no number for northern cooking.
641.5975 is southern.
Texas is 641.59764
