If you don't get this, you must have grown up in say the 80's or 90's.
None of that happened to you and you named 4 things you had that I at times didn't have as your hardships. Just shut up about it already. I have no idea why the frick you think hardships are only tied to world events, but it's pretty stupid.

Funny, maybe you should have applied that same thing when I said I never heard of the term. If it was as common as people are making it out to be, I find it hard to believe I wouldn't have heard people refer to these restaurants that way.

Yeah, I have no use for this kind of nonsense. Being southern is just what I know because it's how/where I grew up. I don't give a shite how "southern" I am, nothing but people trying to fill stereotypes for clout.
I certainly don't think I missed out on anything because I didn't grow up calling the places I eat a "Meat and 3".
You are ridiculous.

Did you call it soul food or country cooking then? The 3 terms are pretty interchangeable if you look at what is being served.
I am an old school survivor, not a modern day victim. If you do not understand the difference then you are the ridiculous one.

Didn't call it anything special. Home cooking? It was just the same kind of food that was common to have at home. Not all of it, but in general. Especially on a holiday.
But as I mentioned earlier, the names for such places often included names like "Country Kitchen" in rural areas. Always someone's name first.

I agree
You enjoy the good times
You learn from the bad times
I am here after all these years from learning from the past and not repeating it in the future.

Looks good, I’m intrigued, will have to check that out. I’m not far from there.

Where I live in TN the only decent meat and three is Cracker Barrel. Shame these restaurants don’t exist much anymore.

Cracker Barrel
Used to be so good when I was a kid. But, I may have just been memorized by perusing the toy section while we waited.
They had the breakfast all day long thing locked down as early as recall anyone else, and it appealed to me. And, their dinner options used to be solid with flavor and portion size. But, honestly, I'd prefer Waffle House to CB for breakfast food. And, the sides are generally bland and food overcooked for lunch/dinner. Their chicken and dumplings are a damn crime against humanity.
I do like most every catfish dinner I've had at CB though, except for their dry arse hushpuppies.
All that said, it's only a meat and three if you uncharge for the third side.

I am with you I was born and raised in the south never heard that term either. I understand like you what they mean but when our family went to it you called by name.
This sounds like a term some gen z hipster would make up to feel associated with something. The term may have been around for some time but only got popular this century.
I looked up a list of current Meat & 3 in NC and most of them were opened this century. Many of what fit this category are not even listed. I could probably name 50 with ease not listed
Same here
I think I've probably heard the kitchen ladies refer to meat and three as what we get while we are selecting
The restaurants themselves to me were cafes, kitchens, soul food restaurants, or just the name of the person who owned it

staple. bullshite. I looked it up. The earliest references to the term on wiki were from like 2009, and it supposedly originated in Nashville.
JFC, this is so stupid. Meat and three is a long time thing in the South.
