That's perceptive Nanda. It is, in fact, the Algonquin equivalent of 'doughboy'. Thanks for sniffing that out. Wink

It's pahkwęsikan in Cree for traveling nourishment or alternatively "he who pushed the metaphor too far fairs badly".

"In June 2000, Michael Blackstock, Aboriginal Affairs Manager of the Kamloops Forest Region in British Columbia, published a small booklet entitled ‘Bannock Awareness’, ....More importantly, Blackstock’s publication features no less than seventeen recipes for bannock; some that incorporate ingredients used prior to European contact....  Blackstock argues that there is a false assumption “that Aboriginal peoples did not have forms of bread prior to European contact.”  He states that natural ingredients such as lichen and plants were used....
Bannock or Sapli’l, as it is known, was made with flour from wild plants before European contact."  ---- (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

..And so the plot (or bannock) thickens....
