Browsing the new book cart, this book claims that: “Crunk” is a Southern slang term that means “to get excited.” Keepin’ it real and makin’ it fun, vegan blogger Bianca Phillips adopted the Southern slang term to convey passion and pride for her heritage and the down-home food she was raised on.

    Urban Dictionary would certainly say she’s WAY off base!

    Even if I were vegan, this would be a “hell no” in my mind just for the title alone.
  9. archivalintegrity said: Doesn’t necessarily mean stoned or drunk in particular….just more like “gettin’ down” or having a good time. Either way, this is an eye roll inducing use of the word.
