 DD> Title: Pennsylvania Dutch Kluski Noodles
 
Not quite. The Amish folk don't have Dutch but Deutsch i.e. German
roots. Another Anabaptist group, the Mennonites, which started up in the
Netherlands was led by a guy by the name of Menno who was Frisian.

There is also a third group of "Plain Folk" with Austrian roots, called
Hutterites, started by a Mr. Hutter.

They all have similar beliefs, customs and common foodways but they
are from their different countries originally.

And Kluski is actually a Polish word for dumplings.

To top it all off I doubt very much if the real Amish in Lancaster go to
town to buy packages of frozn spinach, envelopes of onion soup mix
or Parmesan cheese!
