[Sca-cooks] Southern Cornbread

[johnna holloway]

The reason why it's always Jiffy around here is that I live
in the community where Jiffy is made... all those blue boxes originate 
here in Chelsea and only in Chelsea, Michigan. Jiffy is not made 
anywhere else on the planet.

WEll, actually to be accurate, the box plant is over by Marshall, but 
they are all filled here. About 1 mile west of where I live in fact.
