Late but I want to say THANK YOU! THANK YOU for this post. From when I first watched and then rewatched this movie being older , I never saw Teri as the villain but as a family member that has been taken advantage of over and over again whos feelings have been tossed to the side in the name of "family" To me Soul Food was a movie about an extremely toxic black family that uses food to avoid addressing the real problems and truly heal. They would just rather gaslight and guilt trip Teri. I cheered when Teri said "F** the family" I wanted her to take back her voice and her dignity and just cut all of them off. I almost want to write a fan fic about it.
