I heard that the filbert industry changed the name to hazelnut for marketing reasons. People found the name hazelnut more appealing than filbert. They grow them here in Oregon, and when I was a kid we called them filberts, too.

Hot and sour soup, not really known as that surely, you could have 'Hot potato'....... 'Hot meat pie'...... etcc.

I doubt the version served in the US is "authentic," but it's always called "Hot and Sour Soup," for obvious reasons.

Technically, "British" does refer to the United Kingdom. But in the spirit of fairness, Haggis is Scottish.

@stevediverse, while British refers to the UK, this is like saying the Scottish flag is British. Please fix -- haggis is Scottish.

Good grief, could they make haggis look any less appealing? Lacking any testimonials as to how utterly delicious it is, I don't think I could attempt to eat a single forkful. That just looks so nasty.

You don't normally see it with the skin on (in my experience) which makes it look a good deal better - and it is very tasty indeed.

Not the best picture to be sure, but they are delicious. Perhaps quizmaster could find a pic of a living specimen, with its legs longer on one side, so that it can run around the steep hills of the Scottish highlands without falling over. Very cute, but easily caught by turning them around so they roll down the hills to the waiting huntsmen.

See, I've always been taught to rub salt on their tails so they run round in circles to lick it off. Once they've started they can't stop (because their legs are longer on one side) so you can easily catch them.

I tried "heartichoke" for the habaneros. They look kind of heart-shaped. I think that would be a better name.

Hominy is kernels of dried field corn that have gone through the process of nixtamalization which loosens the outer husks. I made it once with my grandmother who poured water through wood ashes to make lye water for soaking the kernels. After they swelled we had to wash and wash and wash and wash it, and then wash it again, slipping off the outer husks with our hands as we washed the kernels. It takes a lot of time and work to make hominy by hand. We decided it was much easier to buy it in the can, or dried and ground as hominy grits.

I didn't know six of these. Definitely Scottish because it's extremely difficult to buy haggis anywhere else. But then you can't buy some of these other foods either in England.

I only got Hardtack because a friend made it for a gaming night, I hope as a joke. I think he got the recipe from how tiles were made for the space shuttle, quite durable.

This was an easy one for me. We've grown eight of these on our farm - ham, hazelnuts, habaneros, honeydew, field corn for hominy, honey, horseradish, and huckleberries - although the hazelnuts didn't survive the first year, and we grew garden huckleberries which aren't the same as regular huckleberries. (We didn't care for the garden huckleberries which are a member of the nightshade family. They didn't have much flavor but they produced well.) We grow blueberries which are much closer to real huckleberries. We've also made brats from our meat which is close to hot dogs but not the same.

Were you struck down by the common glizzy-hotdog confusion?
+2
Level 65
Mar 4, 2021
I do humbly request that you consider the acceptance of glizzy for hotdog, it is quickly becoming a part of the English lexicon. Glizzy is well on its way to being the primary nomenclature for such food products. When I see a 'hot-dog' I think "oh heavens that there meat tube on a bun appears to be a glizzy". Please correct this error with tremendous haste.

I concur entirely with your sentiment. The english language is a complex and ever-changing agglomeration of words and phrases. Often defined more by the users and their culture than a definition in a book. I often find myself ruminating in my study for hours upon end, which is quite taxing on the mind and body. My immediate source of energy is preferably a "hot-dog" although i am quite afraid this term is rather archaic and seldom used. Instead, my colleagues and I prefer the term "glizzy" as it is much more in fashion today than ever before. Never have I come across a young person who is a "hot dog eater", rather, they prefer the more apropros term "Glizzy Gobbler". I hope this issue is resolved in a timely manner. Ciao!

I have to sadly disagree with this statement. As stated in the title of this quiz, these are "foods that start with H". Taking that into account, the term "Glizzy" would in fact not fit this quiz, as it starts with the letter g, and not h. Nonetheless you are right in that "Glizzy" is becoming a part of the lexicon and is a more commonly used word, as I even use the term myself. But I doubt that this quiz will be changed to fit the term "Glizzy" as it would be incorrect.

The only reason I got habanero is because I was trying french fries with different sauces and rating them yesterday and one of the ones was mango habanero
