    Without Googling, who here knows what a beignet is? Seriously, if you do not know, I'm not going to berate you.

    I need this info in regards with an argument with a co-worker.

    I knew, but probably only because I have been to Paris a few times. Crepes with banana and nutella were also a favorite.

    not really a class thing

    I just assumed most people were familiar with them since they are kinda famous, especially in south LA. I assume most of you know what gumbo and etouffee is, right?
