That's a whole lot like "Native American" fry bread. Or bannock (which
is baked). Here's a recipe I glommed onto in the 1990s.

I find it interesting how my emotional reactions shade my perception of foods. After reading about the history of Native American fry bread, i
no longer wanted anything to do with it. Even though from an objective point of view, it's just another bread.
That sent me to the Bing search engine to do some reading. The main take-away I got from that was "We need to honor the truth and the pain
of what was there, but also the heart of who created the fry bread. This is beauty and pain next to each other."

I like the way that quote was written. Also, for the sake of peace, i value the freedom to have one's own experience and learn at one's
own pace.
I get a bit exercised about/with people claiming privelege, etc. because of shabby treatment of their ancestors. I understand to some extent their history of pain and suffering. But, my ancestors suffered too. I just try to treat everyone as I would like to be treated. Religionists tell me that that is the "golden rule".

I understand what you mean.
I have been treated as an honored guest on pueblos and reservations. I went to a pow-wow with someone who viewed fry-bread as a fun carnival treat. I don't view it that way, but i can hold my tongue and hold my peace.
A friend told me about the platinum rule: Do unto others as they would have you do unto them. I imagine that requires communication and openness.
