That left me more confused than this one:

This is what your state googled the most in 2015 - link.

Salmon and finger steaks? I'm okay with that. NH gets the apples. Utah with "funeral" potatoes? Okaay ...

Alabama--fried anything! Fried anything could be Texans favorite food too, but I'll agree with the list that Tex-Mex and Mexican food are #1!! Yum! I love Tex-Mex!

Missouri"s toasted ravioli....YES

Funeral potatoes are really good! Not so good for ya...might send YOU to an early grave if you eat too many, but I like to have them at Christmas with ham. Easy dish to take to a potluck too. No leftovers to come home with.

Scrapple (Delaware)...no thanks!

Hot Browns (Kentucky)...I'm going to have to try that.

Rocky Mountain Oysters (Montana)...I thought that was a joke or maybe only eaten in 3rd world countries. I don't care how much batter you dip and fry them in. People really eat that?

Pepperoni Rolls (West Virginia)...of course we're going to have good tailgating snacks.

That was an interesting list.

I have just discovered that I've been living in a cave all these years. Here I am a faithful Idahoan and have never even heard of finger steaks. A quick poll of my fellow cavees revealed the same.

Note to self: Must get out more often!

I've been to the Hormel Spam plant. Its amazing how its produced and canned in a very tall canning silo/thingie. Its really a quality product, not full of the junk that people associate it with .

We call the company "Hor MEL". The locals call it "HOR mels".

people eat them, that's just nuts or what.....

it only shows what they want you to see, what they should show for each state the micro delicious for each of their regions.

I had Rocky Mountain Oysters once when traveling through Oklahoma. There were lots of feed lots, so many that the aroma of steer poo wafted through town. I guess with all those previously un-steered, there were lots of RMO's, so put them on the menu. They were sliced thin and dipped in gobs of batter and fried. Not a lot of taste, really.

Scrapple. I remember my Grandmother making scrapple and souse from hog's heads. She sliced the scrapple and fried it.

Shrimp grits. (don't remember what state) DEE-LICIOUS!! Grits anything is good.

GUMBO!! Louisiana. I adore gumbo and love to make it. Any kind of gumbo, but crab is my favorite.
