@copperbadge ahhh so THAT'S where the terrifying crack fic is hidden on ao3 

In the 1950s! Kind of makes sense, in a way, doesn’t it?

"Fried onion burgers" its fried onions. On a burger. How it it special??? Is that specifically an Oklahoma thing? Does no other state fry onions for burgers?

I assumed from the photo the onions were somehow embedded in the burger after being fried, like a smashburger was smashed ONTO them.

Hot Dish is delicious how dare u

I mean, it’s delicious, sure, but it’s a bit heavy in the gut.

maryland's gotta be crab cakes and fries with old bay on em. probably old bay on the crab too.

I feel like Maryland’s should really just be “old bay snorted straight from the tin”.

Nashville hot chicken was just made up to give the state "a food" says my Nashville peeps.

I mean, if you lean in hard enough, that ceases to matter. I invented the Gary Style hot dog to bring more tourists to Gary, Indiana. It hasn’t worked, but I remain loyal to the idea.

Hot dogs are what Georgia's known for (particularly from the Varsity).

This I would never have guessed! And now I know where to go if I’m ever in Atlanta.

Dungeness crab my seattleite ass, smoked salmon is what you want in WA

I think the idea there is that crab doesn’t travel as well as smoked salmon, which you can get pretty much anywhere because smoking preserves it. But honestly if given the choice I would prefer smoked salmon.

When my fam moved away from WV, I was so bewildered about the lack of pepperoni rolls, anywhere. I had to make my own lol

I had never had one until my first visit to Pittsburgh, and now it’s not a real visit to PGH without one.

After 10 years and probably hundreds of burritos, I believe that is the correct answer for California. Sushi is too ... urban? but you can get a solid burrito just about anywhere. Georgia should indeed be pecan pie as someone else already noted.

That’s the thing, though, you can get a solid burrito anywhere, including many places outside California. That said, the same is true of sushi, so I withdraw that suggestion. I think really we need to hunker down and consider what you can only get in California or what you can only get the BEST of in California.

The answer might be sourdough. Or extra-strong weed edibles.

This list is homophobic for having so much shellfish on it because I, a gay, am allergic to shellfish

I have bad news for you about the entire east coast of America, my homosexual friend.

You eat the Coney at American (NOT LAFAYETTE) and then walk 10 minutes to the new Buddy's and get the pizza. Mischief managed.

I know I’m old because I love this idea even as I’m horrified at the heartburn this will inspire.

Sam, you said Sheetz when you meant Wawa.

I SAID WHAT I SAID. (I like Wawa too, mind you, but Sheetz is a different, almost psychedelic level of food.)
