    [​IMG] No, not the shoes. A southern food originally given to dogs on fishing/hunting trips but now a gourmet dish.

    First I thought this thread was about eating shoes. Been there, done that.

    Then I thought it was actually about eating pupies. Don't ask.

    Then I saw Nakia started this topic. And I knew it was about dogs eating shoes. :p

    @Barmy Army
    Good thing you added a smiley. These are a southern food. Not something concocted by a !#$%yank :p .

    @Splunge, Hi son. Glad to see you're still with us. I've had dogs who did that. They only pick the best.

    @Everyone else. Did I mention that this is a southern food?

    They're perfect fair food... right up there with deep fried candy bars.

    Nakia - I'm pretty sure by "yank" he meant "American." Typical cockney brit, that one. ;)

    I've only eaten them as a side order at Popeye's, so, you may or may not consider that a blasphemous incarnation of the hush puppy. The nasty indegestion I got afterwards certainly led me to. :sick:

    Never heard of them. Sounds like deep fried flour, egg, and milk. Not really my cup of tea (sounds far too fatty) but I'd certainly try it once if I had the opportunity.

    I'm not sure if this is off topic or not, but I'd like to know if boiled peanuts are also a southern USA food. When I was very young and we were living in the states for a year, I remember going to a bluegrass festival in the south and eating boiled peanuts there. I thought that it was a strange way to eat peanuts because they tasted like potatoes.

    Yummy hush puppies. Fried food at its best.
