All of these listed are St. Louis area specific. Since you asked in the StL forum. Not sure what else could be added from other parts of the state...

Ice cream cones and banana splits were introduced for the first time at the St. Louis World's Fair were they not? Of course you could put in a gift certificate for an ice cream cone.

The McDonald's Happy Meal was also invented in St. Louis in 1977 (not sold until 1979).

Aunt Jemima Pancake mix was the first pancake mix sold commercially. It originated in St. Joseph, MO.
