Deep Fat Frying has come to the North American British colonies... how far away could the French fry be?

Not the question I'm answering. Not yet. Instead, it's a look at the arrival of savory deep fried food in (pre) America. What are it's roots, and how it came from a different place than sweet fried foods.
Incredible.

And why fried foods were a bigger thing in the south east than everywhere else in the country before the railroad showed up and scrambled everything up.

Oh! Check out these pictures of the ridiculously huge oil bean seeds (plus a recipe for using them):
