I think this is funny. Zydeco is the name of Cajun music, sure enough,
but it's a linguistic corruption of "les haricots." Green beans.

The lineage has been pretty well established from an expression in
daily currency "les haricots sont pas sale'" - long story. The Cajun
"R" is trilled rather than formed on the palate as it would be in France.
