Hamburger took its name from a theory that suggests the first hamburger was made putting a hamburger steak between two slices of a bun, or so i remember.
Not sausage, I'm talking about oscar myer weiner in a bun hot dog. Definitely a lot lower quality then a sausage of any type.
Tourtiere! My family's traditional Christmas Eve meal. Delicious! Nanaimo bars! From Nanaimo, of course ... Maple syrup! Butter tarts! Montreal smoked meat! Back bacon! That's all I can think of now ...
Both corn and maple syrup were foods of the North American natives prior to the arrival of Europeans to define Canada or the American colonies.
On a side note, I find it amusing when people say: 'as American as apple pie'-- a traditional and widely made European food dating back to the 1300s. In a way it's quite suitable, considering the history of immigration and cultural appropriation, but I don't think that's what they mean (or is it?). Now I want some apple pie. The traditional Dutch kind with cinnamon that I grew up with. Yummo.
