Brief History of the Acadians

Many will know that the Acadians begat the Cajuns of bayou country, with the name evolving something like

Acadian —> Cadian —> Cajun,

but put me on the list of those who didn’t know a thing about Acadian food. I can’t say I even knew it was a thing. Until now. Can anyone speak to whether rappie pie really tastes like congee? I’m skeptical.
