I can't resist adding one of my trivial contributions to this erudite discussion. I read a while back (possibly in an old Reader's Digest) of an American family who moved to a part of rural Yorkshire serviced by a travelling baker's van.
On his first visit the woman asked the baker if he had English muffins. Drawing himself up in indignation, the baker replied "Madam: all my muffins are English!"
