Fuck you - it's funny.
Honey butter is used for a number of things - though I generally associate it with sopaipillas, a fried quick bread which is a treat with honey butter - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sopaipilla
Can't fry them fast enough for my brood.
I don't know any regional info about either, but my parents did it in Georgia, and I continue to do them occasionally here in michigan.
I think there's a chain buffet restaurant around here that stocks honey butter next to their rolls, which has a southern theme, so if anything I'd guess honey butter is a southern type condiment. Have never seen it prepackaged, though.[DOUBLEPOST=1498660749,1498660598][/DOUBLEPOST]This article suggests that honey was used as a preservative for butter in ocean voyaging days:

I've heard of honey butter as something to use on baked sweet potatoes, but usually just laugh at people that do it because invariably, they're trying to find a condiment that fits a baked sweet potato the way that sour cream, cheese, butter, etc. fits a baked non-sweet potato - and usually it goes a little something like this:
***Attention Type 2 Diabetics! Do you miss baked russet potatoes since your diagnosis?! Miss them no more! Just have a baked sweet potato with honey butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar! They're awesome! And, while you're at it, have this non-dairy ice cream substitute which is just mashed bananas and peanut butter! It's totally great too! And, you should give up sugar and just drink apple juice all the time! Oh, and since your doctor no doubt told you to increase your vegetable consumption, you should have Waldorf Salads all the time now, and tons of melon and other fruits! It's healthy! Oh, and beer is bad for you now too, so switch to rum! Follow these simple steps and your diabetic life will be over faster than you can blink!^***
^Because you'll be dead.
Hushpuppies with honey butter are practically candy.
I'm going to Sunset Beach, NC in five days, which is next to Calabash, NC - the (self-styled) fried seafood capital of the world, and hushpuppy Mecca as far as I'm concerned. I've already packed my one-size-too-large pants to accommodate the inevitable waistline inflation.

And cinnamon butter goes quite well on cornbread.

Auugh cinnamon butter.... So good.... Mllaughuaghlll....
Yes, I got it most often at Steak & Ale restaurants. They would serve it with their little dark table loaves.
But it's equally at home on biscuits, cinnamon toast, pancakes, basically any breakfast bread.

We have All Dressed Ruffles, but reports from the field suggest they still pale in comparison to their northern cousin.
We have loaded baked potato flavour too and it's definitely not the same. All Dressed is like a mix of salt n vinegar, onion and BBQ.
No, they're called All Dressed. They pop up here from time to time.
In various taste test videos on YouTube, folks routinely give the Canadian version higher marks. Even looking at them, you can tell the original has more flavoring on the chips.
