Thanks for this link Michael! Some great variations for me to use, I make a olive spread and a shrimp spread that everyone asks me to make for various holidays but I like some of those better!

From the name, I thought it was made from some cheese ,made by benedictine monks or nuns,because that was the first thing that came to mind.

I voted for bourbon balls. I figured it would be an underdog...and I bet they are good and strong.

Sounds like American version of tzatziki sauce, substituting onion for garlic.

Thank you, Mr. Hoffman.
I was thinking of the liqueur Benedectine, but thought, nay, that cannot be. It is not an American southern speciality. Nor originate from those parts.

I am glad the link you sent me tells me why they got that name.

I read the survey today and could not figure out what some of the food stuffs were, but Benedictine spread sounded interesting?

What is this Kentucky speciality?
