i HATE yams and sweet potatoes....never had Okra.....

If you like pumpkin pie I would bet you would like sweetpotatoe pie. As far as Okra I eat it both boiled and fried. Most people I know really like the fired.
I've seen some die hard northerners chow down on the fired okra.

i love pumpkin pie...but i dont like sweet potato pie......i give everything a chance.....i think one of the only other veggies i dont like is brussel sprouts...i love asperigus, spinach.....all the others people hate because they dont give it a chance....but i just dont like sweet potatos......

I'll have to agree about the brussel sprouts, they are not much to my taste
either! My wife told me boiled okra reminded her of snails (I don't know how to spell escargo) in butter sauce. But I'll just have to take her word for it.
She's cajun they eat anything that don't eat them first)
