Mary had a little lamb. She milked it with a spanner.
Milk came out in shilling cans. Little ones a tanner
Boom boom

Try it with coke, I think they do something like that, half and half with milk in SA a "brown cow" AFAIK
That sounds positively revolting!
I know the Chinese business people like French wine mixed with Coke.
Look here. I am known to have a decent palate.
I can not imagine how it tastes.....
But, I will try anything et least once!.
So it is a mix of 50% milk and 50% Condensed milk, poured in Coca Cola?
Maybe 25% 'milk mix' and 75% Coke?

try 30% condensed 70% cola............I wonder if you going to try it and think me evil
No worries, they have been defiled before!
Toad-in-the-hole with a liberal dose of ketchup is a memorable one!
But it was a weird taste, the SA Cokemilk... I think the carbondioxide made it strange. Without the bubbles it would be more like flavoured milk!
My tastebuds are back to normal, recovered fully after enjoying a nice Melton Mowbray pork pie and Cow Foot soup for lunch !

Yep.
Local, Caribbean dish. Old slave food (is it PC to say this?)
The white people took the best bits from the animal and gave the rest to the slaves. They found ways to use all, in very tasty dishes.
Cow foot, without the hoof, cut into pieces. Yams, salt. seasoning pepper ( = Scotch Bonnet minus the heat), Scotch Bonnet pepper. Thyme, black pepper.
Cow Foot is similar to Pork Trotters. Slightly milder taste.
Another favourite is Salt Pork Tail Soup.
Salt Beef and peas another. That one used to be made from heavily salted beef shipped over from UK, remains of what the British Navy had for provisions. They unloaded the (old, semi rancid) barrels of Salt Beef, and sold cheaply. Bought freshly salted meat ( pork, goat, turtle) on the voyage home. Again, was bought cheaply by the white folks and given to the black brothers and sisters.
Today it is not rancid of course. But salt beef has a much nicer taste than fresh beef!
The 'peas' is in fact small brown beans.

Yes, it is. I have a friend, a black American, that is a true foodie. He learned lots of dishes from his (very poor) grand mother, plus the origins.
Even in the US they have a veritable treasure trove of very tasty 'slave food'. different from the Caribbean, but very tasty1
What about boiled Water melon rinds? Chicken head and feet soup? or even better, Cow Skin casserole?
Yes, boiled cow skin (hairless though!) !

Ok anybody recall "Indiana jones and the temple of doom" I'm starting to feel like the lass at the dinner table!
It's called "Soul Food" but it's not completely disconnected from white Southern Food. If you draw a Vin Diagram with three circles (one representing Soul Food, another representing Southern Food, and the third one representing "country food" they'll overlap considerably. Fried chicken, BBQ pork ribs, and BBQ chicken will be on all three. Chitterlings, cornbread, collard greens (and mustard greens and turnip greens) okra, and blackeyed peas will be on the overlap of Soul and Southern.
