Maybe this is a phonetic rendering of a regional-dialect variant. For  
example, the Poles in New York City mostly refer to stuffed cabbage  
rolls as "galumpkes", with a hard "g" and a distinct "m" pronounced.  
Elsewhere in the Southern Tier of New York State many people  
pronounce this word as "halupkies". I can only imagine how this is  
pronounced in Buffalo, i.e. in a third part of the state, but then  
that's sort of my point...

Adamantius (who didn't have Huette in mind when he started writing  
about Buffalo, but it may have been kismet)
