What's one US food invention you wouldn't want to live without? Hot dogs? Hamburgers? Something less basic?

Pizza is pretty good... invented in NYC by Italian immigrants iirc, so technically American, although I gather there is controversy surrounding that take (flatbread was invented in Italy, even with cheese topping, but the whole tomato sauce thing that we recognize today was invented here; this orc entirely ignoring the debate about whether flatbread is "better" or "worse" than American style pizza).
