poke and sniff

A very old way of how the US government checks meat. They would use rods to poke the meat and sniff the rod to see if the meat had bacteria. If the meat smelled bad, then it would be "dirty" and wouldn't pass inspection. This was a pretty bad way to check, cause the inspectors wouldn't wash the rods. That spreads bacteria from the bad meat to the good meat faster than covid ever will. This method was used until around the 1990s.

History teacher: What method did inspectors of meat from the government do during the 1900s?
Student: A rod to poke and sniff the meat for bacteria.

poke sallet

The term poke sallet is an old Southern term for the cooked young leaves of the poke weed. Sallet comes from Middle English and refers to a mess (another Old or Middle English term) of greens cooked until tender. The term Polk Salad is a gentrified way of referring to poke sallet, and I'm afraid it reflects our inferiority complex when it comes to standing up for our Southern terminology. We are not making a mush of Polk Salad; actually, we are being true to our English ancestors who settled here a long time ago.

Some folks around here always add a little molasses and fatback to the water when they cook their poke sallet. That's the traditional way.

Don't you just love Tony Joe White's song Poke Sallet Annie?
