Chop Suey is an Asian dish created in America for non-Asian Americans, iirc.
The translation into English is "Beggar's hash," or something close.

And nothing like the recipe. I've never had Chop Suey in a Chinese
restaurant, but I distinctly remember it from the cans of Chung King
Chop Suey that my mother used to open for us.

Ugh anyway.

American Chop Suey is a New England thing. Mac 'n meat. Nothing Asian
about it. No idea where the name came from though!

In the South, we called it "goulash". (and it has nothing to do with
the Hungarian dish by the same name)

I remember being invited to a friends' house for dinner one night. She said
she was making goulash. Naturally I thought of Hungarian Goulash and my
taste buds were all set for it. Turned out to be a macaroni & hamburger
casserole. Hmmm.

Your host didn't say "Hungarian Goulash" but technically you were
served a goulash, hog slop is a goulash.

gou�lash
noun
Etymology: Hungarian guly�s, short for guly�sh�s, literally,
herdsman's meat
1 : a stew made with meat (as beef), assorted vegetables, and paprika
2 : a round in bridge played with hands produced by a redistribution
of previously dealt cards
---> 3 : a mixture of heterogeneous elements : JUMBLE

No, she didn't say "Hungarian Goulash". But since I'm not originally from
the southern U.S. I had never heard of this macaroni hamburger concoction
before, let alone heard it called goulash! I never had it when we lived in
South Carolina, either. Maybe it should be called Jumble, instead!

There's is nothing Asian about any chop suey.... the chop suey sold in
American Chinese restaurants doesn't exist in China

Sheldon,

That's what I thought I said. I thought it was created by the Chinese
restaurateurs in San Francisco's Chinatown to entice non-Asian Americans to
get a taste of a simpler cuisine that didn't come close to matching their
exotic dishes. "Get 'em in the door" so to speak.

Maybe it was chow mein?!? I forget. I saw it on FTV once.
