GREAZY and GREASY

[Sally O. Donlon]

I've grown up with positive connotations over "greazy."

My father always complained that my mother's cooking wasn't "greazy"
(or salty) enough. He cooked cajun food like nobody's business and she
was from the Northeast and could make a mean pot of corned beef and
cabbage.

Also, when traveling I always prefer to stop in the local "greazy
spoon" cafe for meals, rather than a slick chain venue. This is
particularly true for Tex-Mex in the U.S.
