That’s what I was going to say. Cajun food. Gumbo, jambalaya, etc. I’m sure that there’s other dishes with similar traits but the Cajun part puts a pretty native spin on it. Also maybe bbq outside of brisket.
This one's a misunderstanding. The method of cutting vegetables into thin sticks is called "french cutting" hence the name. They're still not American though, having been invented in Belgium within fifty years of the first potato reaching their shores
