Down Home Mississippi Shopping

Question:  Where do you go when you need one stop shopping for bacon, cheese, ammo, blue jeans, horse tack, and boiled peanuts?

Answer:  Williams Brothers Store in Philadelphia, Mississippi

Turns out, this is Eli and Payton Manning's grandaddy's store.   There's some memoribilia up on the walls, but mostly it's just a good old country store.   Horse tack in the back.   Blue jeans and cowboy boots to the left.  Out front is boiled peanuts.   But everybody goes for the bacon and cheese.

Right as you walk in the door, in the middle of the floor, they're cutting bacon and bologna and red rind cheese.  You tell the man how much bacon you want and how thick a cut, and he'll scratch the info on a paper bag (because there's normally a line) and in a bit you've got your bacon/bologna/cheese.

And just look at how beautiful this next photo is.   A big 'ol hunk of red rind cheese on the block getting cut....right beside the ammo.

God Bless America!
