Do you know your city/state's signature dish? (russian, dressing, sausage)

[AnonChick]

Connecticut definitely has more than one. Two of note:

Hot buttered lobster roll
White clam pizza

Texas - Fajitas (beef skirt steak).

I was going to say steak, and chili.

I previously forgot that we are also apparently known for California roll sushi:



Yummy!

Also, that link is bogus - no respect for Cincinnati chili?!? Heresy!

Yep. If I'm ever in the area, I'm required to have Cincinnati chili.

Ohio=buckeyes--Good little treat

But that's because they picked fast-food chili as the state food.

Had they picked BUCKEYES, one of the best candies known to man (especially when they're homemade), Ohio would've been near the top.

So that's my vote - Ohio, BUCKEYES. I don't know how to make them but my neighbor does. I doubt they're hard to produce.

I have made hundreds and hundreds of Buckeyes and they aren't difficult.

When people find out I am originally from Ohio they always ask me to make Buckeyes.

They sound kinda like the original Reese's.

We used to stop at a cheese place right on the state line when driving to Wisconsin from Illinois. I think it might have been called Cheese Castle? They had amazing fresh cheese curds. We stopped every time to buy cheese curds to take home.

Michigan - Cherries and apples, coney dogs and square pizza.
