I think I have a different definition of clodhoppers than you all do...

Where I am, clodhoppers means shoes... Like my shoes are big (size 14). And my mom and grandmother would always say "Here come those big clodhoppers."

I don't know where that term originated from though... Could be a local idiom.

That is what I think of when I hear clodhoppers.

Just a supposition, but the reference to the shoes probably comes from the Depression. Both most likely refer to kind of the folks I posted and the sturdy shoes they had to wear for years. The shoes made the same clop-clop-clop sound as the horses they used to plow their farms back then.

Mmmm, Clodhoppers are good :). I like the original ones, but can't eat too many. A little too sugary, but delish none the less!
