Check out each mouth-watering food specialty from state-to-state below and let us know if we got your home state's dish correct in the comment section.

Food consumption is the connecting factor between all living things on the planet. No matter where we're at, our cultural barriers, language differences, and social climates do not deter many of us from being able to share a meal with one another. One of our innate characteristics as humans is to consume for the nourishment of our bodies.

Regionally, a lot of our eating habits and diets are integrally connected to the environment and cultures we've become accustomed to through our heritages and social engineering. From the rice paddies found throughout Asia to the produce grown throughout the mountains of the Bahamas to the grain produced throughout the mainland Americas, the planet has also us to become fruitful utilizing its natural conditions.
