Not today, FBI... Not today

[-] match@pawb.social 9 points 1 month ago

my local area is typified by PURE CLEAN WATER

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago

So that rules out most developed areas.

[-] JustAPenguin@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

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

[-] postnataldrip@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Went to one the other day, no snags out the front. Devo

[-] Justdaveisfine@midwest.social 14 points 1 month ago

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

... And of course a Dr. Pepper.

[-] GuyFawkes@midwest.social 3 points 1 month ago

Hello fellow Kansas Citian!

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 month ago

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

[-] TheWeirdestCunt@lemmy.today 9 points 1 month ago

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

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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

[-] 5PACEBAR@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

oué pis bonne St-Jean mon chum!

Or Nanaimo Bars! But I live in Australia now, so I guess it's snags and Vegemite toasties.

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I do love me a Nanaimo bar, though I dislike when they're too sweet. Honestly dark chocolate works best for those. Also love tiger paw ice cream

[-] StickyDango@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I'm the same. It's been years since I bought one, so I just make my own to my own sweetness preference.

How about beaver tails / horse blankets / whale tails? With just plain ol' cinnamon and sugar.

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

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.

[-] darksiderbun@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Hol up. I’m in Nova Scotia / Halifax and our thing is the Donair apparently. How many Canadian cities food claim is shaved meat wrapped in a wrap type thing?

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

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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)

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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

[-] wildncrazyguy138@fedia.io 7 points 1 month ago

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

Cheese and beer. No contest. Everyone would.

[-] Broadfern@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

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.

[-] Theoriginalthon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

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

[-] JoeTheSane@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Cheesesteaks and yeungling

[-] inlandempire@jlai.lu 5 points 1 month ago

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

[-] vulgarcynic@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

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

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I was wondering why there were so many IPAs up here. Didn't realize it was a regional thing. Recently moved to Portland

[-] traches@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

Obviously pierogi and vodka

[-] Goldholz 4 points 1 month ago

Käsespätzle and Spezi (das Original von Riegele)

[-] myrmidex@belgae.social 4 points 1 month ago

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

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.

[-] miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

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

A craft lager and a local dry white wine.

[-] ving_thor@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

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

[-] Justdaveisfine@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago

Dinnede looks very delicious.

[-] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Rollkuchen and a Pine needle Gin.

[-] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

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.

[-] halfeatenpotato@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

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

[-] nsrxn@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

milk, and grilled stickies

[-] Justdaveisfine@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago

I've never heard of grilled stickies before but they look delicious.

[-] Baguette 3 points 1 month ago

Chicken teriyaki and coffee

My home state would probably be tacos and milk tea

Weißwurst / white sausage.

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

[-] tipicaldik@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Shrimp & Grits

[-] Zorsith 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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

[-] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 2 points 1 month ago

The Bedfordshire Clanger!

[-] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

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

[-] TherapyGary 2 points 1 month ago

Fried gator tail and a Malibu driver

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Breakfast tacos and Agua de Jamaica.
