They ain't puppies they is corn meal deep fried and chowed down on:upeyes: c-mama 06-07-2008, 16:00 :wavey: Hey okie. According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hushpuppy) The name “hushpuppies” is often attributed to hunters or fisherman who would quickly fry corn meal and feed it to their dogs to “hush the puppies” during cook outs or fish frys. [1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hushpuppy#cite_note-0) Two other legends surrounding the hush puppy date back to Civil War days. Southern soldiers would sit beside a campfire, preparing their meals. When Union soldiers came near, they would toss their barking dogs some of the fried cakes with the command "Hush, puppies". A common explanation for the name in Charleston, SC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charleston%2C_SC) is that slaves returning into the homes of their masters carrying food recently prepared in the outdoor kitchens would throw the batter balls to the barking dogs, telling the "puppies" to "hush." Also, during the time of the underground railroads (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_railroad), escaping slaves would feed these to the dogs tracking them while coaxing them with hopeful commands such as "hush, puppies."
