{"product_id":"the-kudzu-king-kennesaw-taylor-9798595393126","title":"The Kudzu King: Of Rocky Creek Road","description":"\u003cem\u003eHave you ever sipped a drop of dew or ever thought you wanted to? Have you ever eaten an entire pound of bacon all at one time without regret clouding your mind?\u003c\/em\u003e A cousin of mine always told men, \"\u003cem\u003eyou look just like a bacon sandwich\u003c\/em\u003e\". Eventually curiosity would get the best of them and they would have to know why. After much teasing, she would explain, \"\u003cem\u003ewhen you see a bacon sandwich you just wanna' eat it \u003c\/em\u003e\". She was from Washington County, Georgia, a little too country, a little too round and a lot too loud, but she married a lawyer from New York City. Apparently looking like a bacon sandwich is pretty exciting stuff.If you grew up in the country, you'll know what all this is about and might occasionally chuckle a little. If you didn't, you're about to get a comedic introduction into living, loving, lying, dying and all the mud, pig poop, bailing wire, duct tape and moonshine it takes to hold a pig farm together.Whilst a citified man might shudder at the thought of pig poop between his toes, the countryfied man has a much bigger problem to worry about, namely Kudzu.\u003cb\u003eKudzu\u003c\/b\u003e (koodzoo)\u003cb\u003eNoun: \u003c\/b\u003e An Eastern Asian vine (\u003cem\u003ePueraria lobata\u003c\/em\u003e) having compound leaves and clusters of reddish-purple flowers. It is grown for fodder, forage, and root starch, and is a widespread weed and pain in the ass in the southeastern United States.That description, while accurate, does not come close to providing a true understanding of the nature, tenacity, and pure evilness of kudzu\u003cem\u003eSo, come right in, sit right down and get to know Charlie Lebeau. Learn how he became the hog farmin', moonshine makin', kudzu killing machine he was meant to be and why they call him, the Kudzu King of Rocky Creek Road.\u003c\/em\u003eKennesaw Taylor is a former humor columnist and co-owner of the publishing company Conexiones Media Group.
