  1. Here in Japan they call corndogs 'American Dogs'. I explained to my students that we call it a 'corndog' in America. Their sheltered little heads exploded.
    'Why?' they asked.
    'The bread part is made of corn,' I answered.
    'Nu uh, it`s made of bread.'
    'Yeees...and that bread is made from corn flour.'
    I got blank stares in return. I`m sure they thought I was lying.

  2. That's a funny story. You should make them cornbread. It is a slightly sweet bread, made from corn meal, that is very popular in the US, particularly in the South. It goes great with honey, and butter.

  3. I know what cornbread is. ^_~ I may live in Japan but I was born and raised in the American.
    My mom`s holiday cornbread stuffing is one of the only things that really makes me homesick.

  5. We feed our kids the worst meals imaginable in the US public school system. Look at that?! You'd never order that at a restaurant or make it at home. Who comes up with this?!
