Can you explain this to a non-Cajun living in S LA? You're not saying that quote from the VP is accurate are you? Here's the quote: quote: maintained that the name "refers to a loving slap on the back and a kiss on the cheek to your mama as a thank you for preparing another great-tasting dish."

Yes it's accurate

OK, I can accept that. But I still think is a lousy decision to name your product "Slap ya Mama" if you want to market to regions other than Cajun country. That's not gonna fly in this day and time. Can't blame the NFL. Look what's going on with the "Redskins" name. It's all about money, but that's where fan economic behavior has brought us.

Well, SYM has not helped themselves with their television ad where the "Mama" puts on a fricking catchers mask before sitting down to the meal. Wouldn't do a hell of a lot of good protecting against back slaps.

ETA: I think this ban, and the rationale, is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard
