I'm from NC and my favorite supper is: fried chicken with corn on the cob, sweet potatoes, butter beans, fried okra(all out of the garden) and a big ol' cathead biscuit!!!

Other well known NC dishes are: bbq with red slaw fries and hushpuppies, pintos with collards and cornbread, pretty much any southern dish.

My favorite deserts are: any kind of pie(sweet potato is my favorite), banana pudding, pound cake, and all kinds of cobblers.

As far as fruits, well springtime in NC means going to Ingram Strawberry Farm for a few gallons of fresh, sweet, juicy berries. When I think of summertime I can't help but think of a nice, juicy peach from the sandhills.

I'm gonna stop before I start drooling.

Skimming through the thread I didn't seen anyone mention Scuppernong or Muscadines. The state fruit and the base for most Carolina wine makers like Duplin and Hinnant.

Muscadine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

we lived in Charlotte and I was 6 years old. An elderly neighbor man had muscadines and I would go snatch one every now and then. My mama tried to get me to stop and i was normally an obedient child but i just wouldn't stop. I loved them so much.
