Corned beef and cabbage, while delicious (at least, the Queen Of The World's is beyond compare) is not Irish in the slightest. It was a pure, 100% adaptation by Irish immigrants to the locally available foodstuffs on the shores of the New World.
As are the Dropkick Murphys. An Irish-punk band from Quincy, Mass, they are Irish in the same way that corned beef and cabbage is. A tasty, local adaptation to St. Paddy on the shores of the New World.
