People use to make hush puppies and their dogs would beg to have some, so they would say hush puppy and give them some.
The food or the shoe? It is generally accepted that the food got its name becasue at some point someone threw one to a dog to keep it quiet. Various legends say it was either Confedrate soldiers feeding corn biscuit rations to their dogs, or farmers to their dogs, or a chef somewhere to his dog. Whoever first coined the phrase, it stuck. The shoe got its name from the food. A sales mamager for the shoe company was treated to some hush puppies by a friend and was told they got their name for being able to quite barking dogs. Since "barking dogs" was a slang term for sore feet, the saleman git the brilliant idea to call the shoe Hush Puppies because they were soft and comfortable, thereby able to quiet "barking dogs".

According to the Betty Crocker cookbook that was used by my 1958 Home Ec. Class Hunters & fishermen while cooking their food over the campfire, (many foods were cooked breaded & fried) would fry up some breading to toss to the dogs to quiet them. Hence the name... Hush Puppies. :)
Hush Puppies is a shoe brand. It begins with the letter H.
I think it means..That they are so comfortable, your dogs are quiet! (dont hurt) XD

This is the story my mother told me. There were a group of fisherman that had taken their dogs on their trip. They had the dogs penned up, but when they started cooking their catch one night the dogs began to howl. After they had cooked the fish they put hot water in the cornmeal breading that was left over. They cooked these in the still hot oil, and fed it to the dogs saying, "Hush Puppies".

These are cornmeal dumplings that you put in very hot oil, so they get crispy on the outside.
