That a lot of non-american food is rebranded to use tacky american names to get people to try it. Too many americans are afraid to try "foreign" food, but will happily try "Cajun Jim's Cornballs". A couple I can think of are Aioli to "Garlic Mayo" and Chicken Satay becoming "Peanut Butter Chicken". Sounds like mm mm good home american cookin' to me, course I'll try some.

Out of curiosity, what are Hush Puppies outside of the US? I mean, it's corn batter deep fried, seems right up our alley.

Would this be the same s 'corn fritters' in Canada?

Corn meal, egg, salt+pepper. Add water until self-supporting balls can be formed. Drop 30mm balls into hot grease.

Like that?

It's basically just deep fried corn bread.
