hoppin' john
Black eyed peas and rice, mixed with ham hocks, or other things. Basically slop for people. Used only by poor whites, and extremely rural blacks. Most likely, the only place you'll hear this word anymore is southern Georgia, or Mississippi or some place like that.
A word most try-hard blacks from the suburbs have no clue what the meaning is, even though they go on and on about how "they luv them sum soul food"
