I laughed way more than I should've at this

Damn puns and now I'm hungry

OHHHH ITS A HUSH PUPPY

That's actually pretty close to how they came about, except they were trying to cook the fish and the dogs would be begging or barking so they would roll up the excess meal, which had soaked up the fish...juices and throw it in the fry then toss the balls to the dog to shut them up.

Literally no idea. What's a hush puppy?

It looks like puff puff

Who here knows puff puff
