That Jiffy type of sweet cornbread was the only kind I ever had until I
moved to TX. Becca's cornbread (cooked in a cast iron skillet) is
nowhere near as sweet.

I like them both... the Jiffy type is good as a muffin or by itself and
the Southern kind is good when you eat it with a meal instead of bread
or rolls.

Different strokes.
