How true is this , i am not quite sure . The only time i had corn bread was at cracker barrel , which originated from the south .. i think it started in Florida . ( not 100% sure either ) . The cornbread at cracker barrel wasn&#8217;t sweet either , in fact it was a little salty than anything else . And we used to eat it with butter and jam . It was always served with butter and jam .<\/p>\n<p>Now the corn bread that i bought from the store , Kroger , it is sweet and i loved them . I like it just the way it is , i don&#8217;t even bother to butter them up .
