You're asked to vote for the food and drink that best fits the region you live in... What would you vote for?

Not today, FBI... Not today

In my country, the most renowned chefs all work at a hardware store

Around here I'd say beef brisket sandwich with sweet BBQ sauce.

... And of course a Dr. Pepper.

It's a Chicago dog and a can of Old Style, and it's not close.

Boiled crawfish and a cold beer. Or maybe turtle soup au sherry and a sazerac. Depends on the season.

Roast dinner and cider I think, idk if there's a more fitting combo for the British countryside

Philly: A cheesesteak, hoagie, or Italian roast pork (with broccoli rabe, roasted hot peppers, and sharp provolone cheese) sandwich, and a citywide special (traditionally a 12oz PBR and a shot of Jim Beam for $5)

Yuengs & Wings (which rhymes) would be another solid choice

For the kids, maybe a birch beer and a soft pretzel

Probably a Cuban sandwich and Cafe con leche.

(ETA if it has to be things that grow here, probably fried alligator bites and orange juice)

It's gonna be poutine isn't it? Or maybe ketchup chips. Anything but the fucking Caesar (why clamato????)

Smoked ribs with BBQ sauce (its always sweet baby rays) and Dr. Pepper

I don't currently live there but it is my permanent residence technically

Shawarma and a Vodkow martini.

This is how we explain storm watches v. storm warnings, for reference:

Edit: Second choice would be a Killaloe Sunrise and an Old Style Pilsner. Both are ok, on the simpler side, and people often loudly argue that the fancier alternatives with more toppings and complexity are better.

I literally live where the "Pluot," a combination of a plum and apricot, was first bred. So it has to be that.

Personally, I don't like them that much. I'd prefer to have my plums and apricots separated, Tuvix style.

Obviously pierogi and vodka

Pork BBQ and Collards. Finish it down with some Cheerwine.

Cheese and beer. No contest. Everyone would.

Probably barbecue ribs or pulled pork and cheerwine though I don’t like any of those.

Chicken and waffles though go hard. Add a cookout shake and I’m happy.

What I'd vote for: fish and chips What people actually want: McDonalds Because people are dumb

Cheesesteaks and yeungling

Dried plums and beetroots are a staple of the agricultural region I live in ; red wine comes next

Theres no drink option other than overly hoppy IPA (gross, I know, but it is the pnw) and likely salmon on some mixed greens.

Rollkuchen and a Pine needle Gin.

Pickled herring, new potatos, sour cream and chive, oh and strawberries.

At least during midsummer.

But on christmas we have pickled herring, potatos, sour cream, chive and cold smoked rain deer meat.

Shrimp & Grits

Dinnede (a type of flatbread/pizza thing), and white wine.

Champagne and Reefer

French fries and meth.

Lake Huron Whitefish, asparagus, morels (dried from May) and strawberries all local today!

A craft lager and a local dry white wine.

Chicago hot dog, surely. The deep dish pizza thing is exaggerated, but Chicago style hot dog is plentiful. Chicago style hot dog loves you. If you ask for ketchup you will have packets thrown at you disdainfully.

A giant tasteless breaded pork tenderloin sandwich (a flattened pork chop, breaded, deep fried, and placed on a way too small bun) and a Busch light.

Note that this isn't an endorsement, but its the bullshit my area is known for and it fits.

Käsespätzle and Spezi (das Original von Riegele)

Chicken teriyaki and coffee

My home state would probably be tacos and milk tea

milk, and grilled stickies

Grits a Ya Ya and a Bushwacker.

Beer, fries or chocolate, hmmm. I should first taste them all again, just to be sure.

Fried gator tail and a Malibu driver

Weißwurst / white sausage.

Not absolutely unique, but very well-known and therefore pretty identifying for the state of Bavaria.

Breakfast tacos and Agua de Jamaica.

San Diego… I’m saying a burrito and a Modelo

Tacos (really good ones like a proper al pastor or birria) and a strong frozen margarita.

Sweet tea and wet BBQ.

If we aren't going based on what is naturally available which would be a variety of different berries but no fruit plus some trout and venison then it would probably be something simple like hamburgers and a screamer(a slushy with soft serve ice cream at the top and bottom mixed in like a swirl

The Bedfordshire Clanger!

Biryani and rao (sugarcane juice)

Although biryani is mostly a special occasional thing. The daily driver would be lentils.

Similarly the more common drink would be coca cola/ pepsi.

Beer and fish, I guess

Beef pot roast and plain white bread rolls (ohio). Dont think there is a distinct drink for Ohio.

Thin, crispy, square cut pizza. And probably an Old Style. But I wish we were better known for our abundance of great craft beer.

There's a few tourism foods we're very well known for, but the locals would get the above choices.

Irish Coffee and Mission Burritos.

Green Chile, and various food items smothered in green chile, with a craft beer from one of the kajillion small breweries we have around here.

Vermont: A maple creeme (maple flavored, butterfat heavy, soft serve) and your choice of locally brewed beer. We’ve got a lot of craft breweries. I know Heady Topper has a cult following, but there are also other options.

Minnesota: Honeycrisp apple hard cider and fried Ellsworth cheese curds.

Pepperoni rolls and Mountain Dew.
