Grew up in Maine. Mom grew up in Maine. Always called goulash. Didn’t know about American Chop Suey until I went to college in Mass. Funny how names change. Wonder if goulash lost its name due to sounding Russian, and the Soviet scare, like how Russian Salad dressing turning Thousand Island dressing

Geezus, goulash is Hungarian.

That is a very interesting take. I am now quite curious if that is why!

My extended F-C family has been making ACS since shortly after some returned from serving in Korea. Long a staple among the older set; less so among the younger who think it is for poor people.
