Creole just means "mixed ethnicity." The Acadians did adopt some portions of the native american and black culture but they contributed their own input into the mix. Typical usage of the term Louisiana Creole refers to the New Orleans city dwellers who had black slaves putting their own west african spin on french or spanish foods the aristocratic slaveowners craved. Cajuns were a rural, uncultured group of swamp rats who used indigenous flora and fauna with French techniques and the spicing of their fellow native american and black swamp rats.
