So, something which existed long before you were born no longer exists
because you don't like the name? That's rich! :-)

Main Entry: 2chowder
Function: noun
Etymology: French chaudière kettle, contents of a kettle, from Late Latin
caldaria -- more at CAULDRON
: a soup or stew of seafood (as clams or fish) usually made with milk or
tomatoes, salt pork, onions, and other vegetables (as potatoes); also : a
soup resembling chowder

I have unimpeachable documentation that the researcher and editor who
assembled this Merriam-Webster entry are both New Yorkers.

QED

:-)
