think home tastes like Mama,' Parton said. 'I think you always link those childhood memories with certain childhood foods that you love and the people that prepare them for you.' 'God, music and food were the three big things in our family.' She continued, 'I cook more like Mama — a handful of this, a handful of that. Rachel is also very creative, but she wants to make sure it’s going to taste good, too — she’s not as sloppy as I am.
When Parton was asked what song of hers reminded her of her Hot Wing Dip, it was 'Jolene.' 'Oh, something spicy — like our Hot Wing Dip,' George said. 'That woman was just hungry for my man.

In June, the star announced that she plans on bringing 'Hello, I'm Dolly' to Broadway.
