Israel Zangville, an English writer and public figure who traveled extensively throughout the United States, in 1907 put the following words into the mouth of the protagonist of his play: “... America is the greatest melting pot created by God in which all the peoples of Europe are mixed and transformed into a single people!". The word "boiler" carries a figurative and direct meaning. Immigrants from England, Sweden, the Netherlands, France, Germany, slaves from Africa and local Indians created something new and general from their national cuisines and gastronomic preferences.
