I work in the medical field. I've seen patients that have moved here from Idaho, Illinois, Michigan, New York, California and a few other non-southern states. They have all told me their opinion of Mississippi changed drastically after they moved here. They love us and the state. They talk about how friendly we are and how the stereotypes of us being racist, barefoot, toothless, backwoods hillbillies is waaaaaaay off the mark.

And they also say they understand why Mississippi has an obesity problem...our food is so damn good!
