Saint Hyacinth of Pierogi

If you dig deep enough, you will find much older versions of both legends. What they all have in common is that the pierogi are always tacked on at the very end of the story, with little to do with the actual plot. Here's an example from a sermon attributed to Father Felix of Sieradz, a 16th-century prior of the Cracovian Dominicans:
{{Cytat|"Why“Why, it is Saint Hyacinth who drives out the want of the hungry gap. When his memorial draws near, the barns start to fill with grain, harvest ends and you can say that hunger leaves your cottages and in comes Saint Hyacinth with his pierogi." The poor folk understood these words and echoed the preacher: "O “O come, Saint Hyacinth with pierogi!" From then on, this simple folk prayer became a common saying.
