Interchangeable? No . Each cuisine mentioned has it's own feeling and
texture but Native American they very much are.. We define Native
American as those aboriginal people found throughout the Americas.
Just as English, Scots, Irish and Welsh have their own common heritage
but a varying cuisine so do Native Americans based on a common ethnic
background with a commonality of cuisine found in corn, beans and
squash.
