SAN ANTONIO -- H-E-B is trying to dispel a few Texas myths in a Super Bowl ad featuring Texas native and country music star Jack Ingram.

Ingram starts out the commercial by explaining that he hears a lot of the typical Texas stereotypes while touring the country. You know, like
how all Texans wear belt buckles, ride horses to work and eat barbecue for every meal.

A sneak preview of the commercial was released on Wednesday.

WATCH:

The San Antonio-based grocery chain will also be launching a social media campaign asking people to tweet what they think makes a
#truetexan.

I remember once going to Florida and being so disappointed that there wasn't an H-E-B. But seriously, I've legit had kids in school who were from other states literally think that we (Texans) took carriages/horses to school. LOL

Central market, Shiner Bock and Blue Bell Ice Cream, and since I am now gluten/lactose free I can't have the last two anymore anyway.

Just walking around that place was like an event.

Is that the little Walmart grocery store of Independence? I drive by it everyday but I've never been in.
