MSNOW: "South Carolina. South Cackalacky! "

Many Google hits. Also "North Cackalacky." Both new to me.

1974 _Daily Press_ (Newport News, Va.) (March 6) 4 [N]: Cackalacky
(translated Carolina).

Fascinatingly, the next N ex. isn't till 2002, with the introduction
of Skelton's Cackalacky Hot Sauce,
