    @Al S.How many USAsians have had real English food? Some of the names might sound awful, but the taste isn’t the name..American food came from the cultures of it’s immigrants so can it be said that anything is truly American? I’m not criticising, similar things could be said here, with Asian, Jamaican and now Eastern European incomers..Unfortunately all we get here is MacD’s, KFC, and the like along with the Coffee franchises. Pumpkin Pie is Australian, at least that’s where I first had it. Heh heh.

    A leopard in giraffe’s clothing. It was Matthew’s first bible idiom attempt. Later, due to the limited range and familiarity of leopards, he changed it to a wolf in sheep"s clothing.

    Cross-dressing; it’s not just for humans anymore.

    Showing his true colors.@J Short, I’d think giraffes were een lesser known than leopards (as most continents had some form of large cats, but they are unique).

    I think that barbecue is as ancient as Humanity..Yes, thanks to black musicians, Jazz is American in origin.

    I’ve had Cajun and similar cuisine, but there’s that French influence. I liked it because of the spices. To me (and many others) French food is just laughable as as other’s feel about British food. Most of our cuisine comes from Rome, Scandinavia, France, or whichever country we’ve traded with. Please don’t blame us for all the food you don’t like.

    Love your comments on ‘American’ food, especially the southern references. I grew up in New York state, but I was born in New Orleans and my mother had Creole roots. We were raised on red beans and rice, grits and grillades, French Market coffee with chicory, and mint juleps.
