text:  I'd never had a hush puppy until we were on the road one time, and we went to this restaurant one night, and they said, would you like some hush puppies? We didn't know what they were, which may show our ignorance, but we always try to eat local food. If there's local wineries or breweries, we try and drink the craft beers and wines that are there. One quick story. We were in Pictonia, Idaho, and we ordered a pizza.
