The answer is yes. Same as Coonass as well. All interchangeable to describe the creatures live in south Louisiana swamps. The best part of Louisiana is along the I20 corridor
When people think about Louisiana those people aren’t thinking about North Louisiana, unless they’re worried about a duck hunting show. South/South West Louisiana and SE Louisiana are the only part of this state that attracts any meaningful amount of people that come in and spend money.

I think the real answer is that nobody fricking cares outside of this state.

Cajun food is vastly overrated

I’m honestly always amazed at how little people from neighboring states know about Louisiana culture.
I’ve had Texans not know that north Louisiana isn’t Cajun.

Food Board topic, but have to disagree. You obviously have not had traditional Cajun cooking. There are numerous cookbooks out there, but this is a great one by Alex Patout from New Iberia where I grew up. If you follow these recipes, you'll enjoy truly delicious meals. I buy this book on the used book websites for friends all the time since it's out of print.

No,
Cajuns are a group of creoles, not all creoles are Cajuns. Mestizos and mulattos are creoles
Creole is a Portuguese term

Louisiana Creoles (French: Créoles de la Louisiane, Louisiana Creole: Moun Kréyòl la Lwizyàn, Spanish: Criollos de Luisiana) are a Louisiana French ethnic group descended from the inhabitants of colonial Louisiana before it became a part of the United States during the periods of French and Spanish rule. They share cultural ties such as the traditional use of the French, Spanish, and Creole languages
The term Créole was originally used by French Creoles to distinguish people born in Louisiana from those born elsewhere,

Like I told you, its revisionist history
Try not citing a 2010s revision as proof of a 500 year old history
quote:
The meaning of creole, when applied to people, is not fixed; rather, its use has varied with speaker and place. In the beginnings it applied to people of African or mixed descent
quote:
The term creole was first applied to language by the French explorer Michel Jajolet, sieur de la Courbe, in Premier voyage du sieur de la Courbe fait a la coste d’Afrique en 1685 (1688; “First Voyage Made by Sieur de la Courbe on the Coast of Africa in 1685”)

What are Pidgins and Creoles?
Strictly speaking, PCs are new language varieties, which developed out of contacts between colonial nonstandard varieties of a European language and several non-European languages around the Atlantic and in the Indian Oceans during the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries. They typically emerged in trade colonies which developed around trade forts or along trade routes, such as on the coast of West Africa.
quote:
The term “creole” was used in the 18th century to refer to specific Caribbean creole peoples language. It was not until the second half of the 19th century that historians started comparing different creoles, and the idea of class arose.

No. Not even close. What the frick if an even wrong with you?

Not at all.
Creole refers to the African heritage where’s Cajun refers to the French.
They are often, mistakenly, used interchangeably.
If a Creole mates with a Cajun, what is their kid called?

Creole has multiple definitions; Cajun only has two. None of the definitions overlap.
