Today , purists believe , southern cooking is too often represented by its worst elements : feedlot hams , cheap fried chicken and chains like cracker barrel .

如今一些完美主义者觉得南部的菜系里经常出现最差的食材：用饲养猪肉做的火腿，便宜的炸鸡，还有一些诸如饼干桶之类的连锁店。

The south hams have a great deal to offer , including charming villages and the small but lively towns of dartmouth and totnes .

南汉姆斯好玩的地方还多着呢：那些迷人的村庄，达特茅斯和托特内斯那些规模虽小却充满了活力的小镇。

For example , us consumers prefer thin layers of fat in their bacon , spaniards favour heavily muscled pigs for hams , and chinese pork eaters enjoy thicker portions of fat to enhance the flavour of various dishes .

例如，美国消费者喜欢培根里有一层薄薄的肥肉，西班牙人吃的火腿以瘦肉居多，而中国人吃猪肉喜欢多点肥肉，这样能给不同的菜增味。

But I recently discovered that there are other hyper-aged american hams out there , the collective existence of which the collective existence of which suggests that pet hams sate some deep need .

但我近来发现别处还有不少其他的高龄美国火腿，这种火腿收集现象的存在说明了宠物火腿的确能满足某些深层次需求。

Do we give turkeys and hams to half of the people or do we give them to none of them and put that money back in the general food budget ?

我们是把火鸡和火腿给一半的人，还是什么都不给，把钱放到日常食品预算里面？
