Do you feel like you are part of a culture?
I mean following traditions etc. How do you identify? I am 1/2 Cajun, and I love the culture and the food.
Spiritually speaking!!!!
Sally – I am an adopted Minnesotan!
Melting Media – My family names are Crochet and Landry and they came from France via Nova Scotia, Canada.
Everyone is 1/2 Cajun these days. Funny how their last names are Kowalski and MacGilvery. Paul Prudhomme made it cool in the 1980s. Growing up in New Orleans, Cajuns were equated with other minorities until Paul’s personality won over the world. Suddenly, New Orleans French, of a completely different area, were claiming to be Cajun.
I am the grandson of Scots and Danish immigrants who loves Cajun food and has a real Cajun sister in law, maiden name Simone Leger of the St. Amand family from Opelousas.
I just call myself an American with a genetic disposition to love sardines and shortbread (not together.)

What is the relation between Cajun foods and African Americans?
There was a time I asked my friend what type of food most African-Americans enjoyed to eat and he told Cajun foods. Not surprisingly, I hear this answer from the majority of people whom I ask. Why is this so?
speaking as a real cajun, i can first tell you that African Americans don’t necessarily enjoy the "cajun" cuisine you’re referering to. There is a big difference between cajun food and creole food. They enjoy more a mixture of the two. The cajuns that migrated from Nova Scotia had to learn to cook from the land. They used every part of the animal they killed and used every spice they could get their hands on from the land to season the food. thus, the "cajun" cuisine you eat now. Slaves did not necessarily eat the cajun cuisine. They still cooked their own meals. Some slaves were Creole. Creoles were a mixture of black and spanish people. They too had their own style of cooking and their own spices. The two cultures were eventually merged into our melting pot here in Louisiana and that’s the "cajun" they eat. Hope I helped you understand a little better.
