Don't assume that attaching the word cajun to any such shite in Texas equals "culture".

If true Louisiana culture ever took root in Texas, they'd run us the frick out. And the only reason they haven't yet is that right now, the better Louisianians are moving there.

There are two kinds of people that live in Louisiana. Natives who are stuck and people like me, who move here because their jobs let them live kings.

Yes, though Louisiana's Cajun and New Orleans cultures are unique, while Texas is basically The American Southwest to the Tenth Power.

And Texas has always promoted themselves as the best at everything, so co-opting Cajun culture is a no-brainer for them. Just another trophy in their case, claiming that they have everything, including the western half of Cajun Country.

most of these people are pretty mediocre if we're being honest. no one grows up wanting to live in houston or dallas. they do it because they can't find a job elsewhere.

What? No . Tejas has the HUGE Mexican influence and much of Louisiana was largely influenced by the French.

Mississippi and Alabama are very similar. As are Iowa and Nebraska.

But they haven't co-opted "cajun culture".Cajun culture is the same sorta whitetrash "culture" as Mississippi redneck and Akansas hillbilly. There's no frickin' difference.

Whitetrash by any other name is still whitetrash. No matter the piney woods of Mississippi, the Arkansas hills or the swamps and marshes of Louisiana.

Far too many people confuse food with "culture", when it's only food.

I'll bet there's alot of Italian restaurants in Texas too but nobody's saying they're trying to "co-opt" Italian culture.

shite, if real cajun culture ever made it's way to Texas. Every trailer park in that state would smell like a crawfish boil.

Outside of the MS gulf coast (lots of NOLA transplants migrating for years) and LA, TX and LA are close. TX just has a lot of prideful folks that don’t want to admit. So, there is some natural resistance.

You're a moron.

It's food, it's music, it's "Texas Mardi Gras" with parades and krewes and balls. It's Houston holding a boucherie, it's the Houston Crawfish & Music Festival, it's the Houston Zydeco Fest.

You fricking hillbilly.
