Any info on how they got that name? Seems oddly specific for a vegetable so common in the South, there must be a story to tell...
Thanks for the info, but surely not known for actual choking, though I can understand the derogatory connotation if they were eaten often.
Choking them down...expression for eating a lot.
That's what I thought - the implication being about large quantities and "crude" behavior. Snarfing meets bigoted snark and insult.
