From the cookbook, I’ll Have What They’re Having: Legendary Local Cuisine.

Divides the country into 11 regions:

Deep South (AL, FL, GA, MS) = No.1-17

Far West (CA, HI, NV) = No.18-40

Great Lakes (IL, IN, MI, MN, OH, WI) = No.41-57

New England (CT, ME, MA, NH, RI, VT) = No.58-73

Mid-Atlantic (DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA, DC) = No.74-91

Midwest/Plains (AR, IA, KS, MO, NE, ND, OK, SD) = No.92-98

Pacific Northwest (AK, OR, WA) = No.99-109

Rocky Mountains (CO, ID, MT, WY) = none listed

Southeast (KY, NC, SC, TN, VA, WV) = No.110-124

Southwest (AR, NM, TX, UT) = No.125-140

South Central (LA) = No.141-157

If you’re a stickler for authenticity, try being in the region at the same time as you have the food/beverage item.

can someone please tell me what the garbage plate is?? There are many items listed that I don’t know what they are but after many years of being a cautious eater (understatement) I am very interested in the challenge of this list. Thank-you

I see the spiedie sandwich was included, but what about Hoffmann hotdogs and salt potatoes? Or trail bologna from PA Dutch?
