That doesn't surprise me one bit, because I know my Dad scoffed at banana peppers as not being real "hunky" peppers. Or sometimes he would call them "fake hunky peppers" for whimpy types who didn't know what they were supposed to taste like. So I always suspected hunky was a friendly sort of slang for Hungarian.
Hunky/Hunkie is a racial slur for people of Hungarian or Slavic descent so I don't think everyone would find it friendly. jmho
