That a lot of non-american food is rebranded to use tacky american names to get people to try it. Too many americans are afraid to try “foreign” food, but will happily try “Cajun Jim’s Cornballs”. A couple I can think of are Aioli to “Garlic Mayo” and Chicken Satay becoming “Peanut Butter Chicken”. Sounds like mm mm good home american cookin’ to me, course I’ll try some.
Aioli isn’t garlic mayonnaise, it’s minced garlic cloves emulsified into olive oil, sometimes with a bit of lemon juice. The modern sauce usually called Aioli is actually garlic may made to sound more up market and “traditional”. It’s kindof the inverse of your point but perversely done for the same reason, to get Americans to eat it.
