Be honest, isn't everything better with bacon? :) Next month, we diet. By the way, notice that this recipe does not call for sugar...Christy says her family reminded her that the true southern version of cornbread is savory, grainy, and crumbly. (See recipe below). This one makes a LOT of cornbread!
