I'm from the USA. Southern Ohio specifically.

I would say cheese coneys (hotdogs with chili sauce and cheese), 3 ways (spaghetti with chili sauce, cheese, and sometimes other things), and buckeyes (a peanut butter and chocolate candy).


Ugh i miss my cheese coneys .. and chili cheese dip gah xD

I've lived in three states , Washington way up by Canada , 80 miles north of Seattle in a boonies town , the favorite was home made salmon jerky or smoked salmon if you prefer

Yes! Salmon jerky! So good!

I'm from Washington. Our local food is salmon and pumpkin. Sometimes together. I love pumpkin soup with smoked salmon in it. So good.

We also have Seattle Dogs which are hot dogs with Sriracha and cream cheese.

I live in the mountains in the U.S. and we have lots of local foods.

Bleenies, halushki, pierogies, and flitch among others. I'm not originally from here, so I wasn't used to a lot of the grease and sweetness. I still only eat it once in a while. It took me a while to get used to how sweet flitch is. It's a soft candy made out of potato and confectioner's sugar which creates a dough and then you spread on peanut butter, roll it up like a jelly roll and slice. It's crazy-good but super sweet.
Where I live we have toasted ravioli heart
but to be honest I never had it before. Mostly because it has beef in it and my family eats vegetarian when we eat out, most people like it.

apparently its a certain type of burrito, but its got a ton of stuff on it I'm not fond of
I have no idea what DCs thing is. As another poster pointed out, mumbo sauce doesn't count as it's just a sauce. A lot of people say it's the half-smoke but tbh I think that's overrated. Every tourist knows about Ben's Chili Bowl but I don't know any locals who eat there regularly.

I saw an article the other day listing the "U-street taco" as a signature DC food, even though that's totally a fake (and gross) thing invented by City Paper as a joke. Seems nobody knows what DC's food is.

Maybe it has to be mumbo sauce after all.

Can getting drunk at brunch be a signature dish? Because that happens a lot.

I've lived in Philly for forever and couple are:
-cheesesteaks: I don't consider them a delicacy, the famous places are pretty much tourist "must-haves-before-they-leave"
-scrapple: leftover bits in pork or whatever, fried (never had it but sounds fine)
-John's roast pork
-water ice
Since I live in the Asian part: beef and chicken sticks; it's beef and chicken bbq skewers.

I'm from California. I really don't know what our local delicacy is, and I don't think In-N-Out counts. But where I specifically live in California, it's an agricultural area, so I guess there are lots of fruit trees and fruit/vegetable gardens around. The university I attended as an undergrad also sells their own meats and dairy.

Fried chicken and pork bbq would be my guess. xd


Hell yes! Fried catfish, frog legs, everything with a ton of butter and ozzing with possible diabetes!

I'm too lazy to check the posts, but I live near Chicago and we have a few delicacies.

Chicago-style popcorn: Cheddar cheese popcorn mixed with carmel popcorn. DIVINE.

Deep dish pizza: To be honest, I never tried it before. I really should in the near future.

Chicago-style hot dog: Poppy seed hot dog bun with a shitload of toppings. Heard it was pretty good.

Sorry if I missed anything. My memory is s**t. lol
