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.

I agree 100% (see my original post). Some words/phrases/sayings, outside of their region of origin, are not acceptable because they can be misunderstood.

The name is the reason the product is as popular as it is
