Have to say though, there are exceptions! Like the best Mexican outside of Atlanta is in a truck stop near Newnan GA. Also, for me where I live since ALLL the resteraunt' s around think catfish is the ONLY seafood, I regularly visit a truck stop for their Grouper Basket! Oh I know. I just never pass up a chance to make a West Virginia joke. Hey, I live in Kentucky. Legally, we're only allowed to make fun of West Virginia, Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama (if it's not college football season on the latter). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to get myself up off the floor laughing after that! Well played sir! I know when I first moved to GA I was flabbergasted at how brutal Georgia residents were to Alabama people, and even more so in that it seemed like their only defense was "well at least I'm not from Mississippi!" Of course most of the brutality was done in fun! Edited November 2, 2019 by Drroogh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Colorado trout sounds pretty good! That's funny about Rocky Mountain Oysters. But makes sense for Montana. When done right, Rocky Mountain Oysters are really good. The restaurant they have listed for Rocky Mountain Trout, in Frisco, is a place I have been to several times for lunch. Currently have several Rocky Mountain Trout caught by my son, in the freezer right now. Lastly. Iowa. Maid Rite. Loose meat sandwiches. Used to have one close to my house, here in Colorado. Sad, when it closed. Now... I make them at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacrilege! As a connoisseur of massive pork tenderloins this offends me. Really thought indiana would have that. I've had the persimmon pudding and while good isn't something I would consider bucket list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasnt until watching bizarre foods a few years later that I learned what it was. I can do sausages but eating them straight they are a bit too barnyard tasting for me.

Have to say living in Georgia nearly twenty years have never tried them, so I will take you word. Of course I still don't do boiled peanuts, or collard greens either!

Best Dive Bar! https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/beverages/best-dive-bar-in-every-state/ss-AAJjz7T?ocid=spartandhp What does it say about me that I’ve never been to any of the places on any of these lists until now and I’ve actually been to 3 of the best dive bars in the country. The Nob Hill Inn has decent food for lunch, never went for drinks. I think Bears Place up in Evergreen is the best dive bar I’ve been to in Colorado. The Cactus bar in Boise was just as described, I had a good time with good people. Finally, The Matador was a welcome respite from the oddly uppity people in Santa Fe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a number of years. However I do believe I had a burger in that joint in Alaska. Know for sure I have had a burger in the joint in Arkansas. And have stopped on the way home from Wyoming football games in the joint in Fort Collins, Colorado. Three great burger joints. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
