I'm passing through on the way to Jackson. This seems like a cool little town, everything sort of laid back.

Am I missing something glaringly obvious that makes it a shithole? I saw a Sonic so I can throw down if I need to.

As long as you don't stop, it's delightful.

Could you tell it’s the strawberry capital of the south?

I am for one jealous of all these great cities you get to visit.

Rouses is fine but the Walmart you seek is just a couple of block north.

I did see that on the sign coming into town.

Does it have a bayou that runs through it?

It's only a shithole for one weekend in March. Otherwise it's a nice town.

you should attend the Ponchatoula Strawberry Fest.




Then we can more fully discuss the Ponchatoula metroplex and surrounding areas.

Best place to get the saddest fricking sandwich on earth:



Lunch meat smothered in barbecue sauce grilled on a flat top and pressed the shite out of on a bun. Some just get a "sauce bun" which is more poverty stricken than using sliced bread as hot dog buns.

Sadly the drive thru beer isn’t a thing anymore.
