In Thailand a corn sundae was very popular. The ice creame was Foremost soft with strata layers of corn throughout. I’ve forgotten the topping.
“Your grandparents were American not Spaniards nor in Spain”
And every western european family was a Catholic and one time or another...
I’m half Czech genetically, I’m American by birth and I ate ethnically approved Austro-Hungarian fare at massive family reunion feeds. I understand the lineage and boy did the Czechs get screwed by the allies during WWII...
Actually, after being reminded by the exchange, I hustled downstairs and cooked up a batch of grits which I greatly enjoyed. Corn bread is another matter to which I think I'll address my attention today!

food is cultural
When you are hungry, many things taste pretty good.
Those are very reasonable scenarios. But the cleverness and inventiveness of “primitive” peoples is still impressive and humbling. Take the development of maize from an insignificant plant, or dozens of potato varieties from a plant whose foliage and young green tubers are full of toxic alkaloids. Today the same adaptations would be expected to require a huge team of Archer Daniels Midland scientists and a budget in 8 to 9 figures.
I would just use the same source I plan on using - the internet. One thing you have to be careful about is throwing out the first alcohol produced (lower boiling temp). That’s the stuff that makes you go blind or kills you.
