[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a gag gift. The only way to be that offended by it would be to be way to uptight in general. People who are white trash and comfortable with it, don't care if you call them white trash. People who are not white trash and know it, don't care. People who are white trash but want to pretend they're not, get offended. You say she was very offended huh?[/quote] This is not true. My husband's family is white trash and very sensitive about it, knowing they were categorized this way growing up. He got an education, worked on his speech patterns and escaped, but nobody likes to be considered "white trash," especially if your dad was a drunk, you didn't have enough to eat and there was a lot of junk in the yard. The cookbook is probably from a southern MIL and was intended as a joke. No one who considers you WT would give this as they assume you already know all the tricks with cream of mushroom soup and cool whip. [/quote]
