First recorded in 1745–55, Americanism; from Narragansett (English spelling) msíckquatash “boiled whole kernels of corn,” cognate with Eastern Abenaki (French spelling) mesikoutar; further origin uncertain, perhaps equivalent to Proto-Algonquian mesi⋅nkwete⋅wali (unattested), from mes- “whole”+ -i·nkw- “eye” (hence, “kernel”) + -ete·- “be cooked” + -w- + -ali plural suffix (all morphemes unattested)
