Sweet Cornbread or Regular Unsweetened Cornbread, which do you prefer? I would have added a poll, but for some reason that option is unavailable.
Go Tigers!

supporting reasoning is a little...of. The only thing only restrictor plate we southerners have when it comes to sugar is grits.

different recipes and methods, if it ain't sweet, she ain't eatin' it.
She grew up in Florida, but was raised by Southerners while I grew up in SC but was raise by Yankees.
I honestly never ate cornbread until I was an adult. I like it both ways, but sweet at our house and I do call it cake.

At one time corn was ground several times not all at once. My grandfather had a small mill which was powered diesel powered. I'm 71 now and was familiar with his mill from the time I was old enough to walk until he sold it sometime during the mid 1970s.
He ground the corn like the millers of old time who used streams and creeks to power their mills. They set the mill to grind the corn several times rather than trying to turn it to a small bits all at once.
I believe that faster grinding, which is a major economic factor in the production of everything today heats the grain and partially cooks the kernels. Then they quick dry it for packaging which further cooks the grain.
Today's corn meal won't absorb favoring, buttermilk, and even the salt and other things mixed in the meal after it's dried. My best cornbread didn't come close to what made a fat child out of me.
To remain fat I've supplemented my diet with Little Debbie cakes. Oh, about one out of three pones gets a tsp of sugar and a twice as much bacon drippings in the preheated castiron 14" skillet.
Heck, if I cooked cow manure with all that it's be about as good as the best cornbread is today.

If you want something sweet, order the pound cake. Anybody who puts sugar in the corn bread is a heathen who doesn't love the Lord, not to mention Southeastern Conference football.
