Andouille? You really get these in the US? I've only seen in France! - 2/21/12

I didn't think about that! Andouille is a sausage from Louisiana (I live in Mississippi- next door), which is very influenced by french creole cooking so that makes sense that you would find it in France as well. It's delicious!
