      Cornbread/corn muffins can be sweet or savory. We prefer them sweet

      According to Ohio State Symbols, your state beverage is tomato juice, but you don't have a state muffin.

    I'll take a sweet corn muffin unless I am cooking beans. Then I want a savory one with peppers and onions. Now I'm FAMISHED!!

      I suspect it was started here as ground cornmeal was such a New England staple. Cornbread was sometimes called Journey cake or Johnny cake because it was served to visitors at their destination after their journey.
