Well it stuck

[GoodTaste]

What does "Well it stuck" mean here? Does it mean "Well it went on the right track"?


====================


Uncle Leon, being an old Cajun and such, loves to cook. Well, one day old uncle Leon was cooking up a storm for a big crowd of his friends and, as usual people would ask to pass down the seasoning. Now uncle Leon's cooking is mighty fine and adding some seasoning is just normal for us cajun folks, but that got uncle Leon to thinking...What if I was to make my own seasoning? Well one thing led to another and I'll be dang if he did not come up with just the right recipe. I mean it is goooood! Then everyone started asking for a little extra, then some extra to take home and then uncle Leon thought, I might ought to get some bottles to put it in. Well once again, one thing led to another and then he had to come up with a name. He thought long and hard, then Miss Dot, who's uncle Leons pretty wife, said "Why not just call it "Uncle Leon's Louisiana Seasoning". Well it stuck and is the very same recipe that all Uncle Leon's friends craved in the beginning and is now available to everyone.

Could one of the definitions here apply? Hint: it refers to the name Aunt Dot proposed.

I opened the link and, in my opinion, the writer omitted a comma after every instance of "Well". It's not being used as the adverb form of "good". It's simply an empty, introductory word to the sentence. It would mean exactly the same if it was just "It stuck, and is the very same recipe ...".

The way it's written captures the cadence of the spoken language better than it would with the commas. But it's written in a careless manner and shouldn't be used as a model for learners.
