![]() ![]() Tuna doesn’t go in regular macaroni salad. I think we’ve been making it this way for so long, we just assume that’s the way it’s made, but it’s NOT. We make what is called “Tuna Macaroni salad” and so that’s what we refer to as Macaroni salad. LMBBO! That’s because, in the black community, we rarely make “Macaroni” salad. If you ask most black folks to make macaroni salad they’ll probably put Tuna in it! LMBO! When I asked my aunt Lorretta to come over and help me create this good ole macaroni salad recipe, the first thing she said was “Ok, what kind of Tuna you use”? I responded, “Tuna, what we need Tuna for”? She looked at me like I was crazy. ![]() There is a misnomer frequently used in the black community. And so I called her over to assist me in creating this macaroni salad recipe because I wanted her advice since I had never made it before. She knows just the right amount of seasonings and condiments to use to produce the perfect dish. Ok, so… I have to give my aunt Lorretta Green-Gibbs a big shoutout because she has a knack for developing great recipes. ![]()
