Where's everyone from? (And food too!)

Atlanta, GA in the US.

the Southern US (Southeastern, really) is notorious for frying EVERYTHING. We are the same part of the country that created Fried Oreos, Fried Snickers Bars and Fried ________.

Knoxville, Tn in the U.S.

DEEP FRIED TWINKIES!!!!!
They've also deep fried BACON on occasion...and....AND....Macaroni and cheese!!!!!

Texas here!

Tacos, Tacos, Tacos!

I'm from Maine, USA, and my downfall is by far Whoopie Pies!

Born & raised in Texas... TEX-MEX!!! cheesy, saucy, spicy deliciousness. nom nom

And don't forget the barbeque....anything slathered in sauce and thrown on a grill is what we Texans love (or this Texas girl!).

I live in England. My father's Austrian and we lived in Vienna for a few years when I was growing up. I haven't been back for a few years but when I do go, I have to have wiener schnitzel (but made with pork, not veal) with kartoffelsalat and a couple of ice-cold beers!

As for English food - it's not native but it's become a British institution - it has to be curry. I'm clever with my calories to ensure I can go out for a curry once a week and I'm currently addicted to the local restaurant's naga special chicken curry - usually with saag daal and a naan bread.

I'm also a bit of a cheese freak - we've got a fantastic cheese shop in the village which I have to avoid for the most part but I go and stay with a friend every few months so I'll stock up on local cheeses before I go and we'll spend the weekend eating our own bodyweight in cheese and washing it down with copious quantities of red wine! That has to be a very occasional treat though :-)

I'm from the UK and I've so many food 'addictions' I don't know where to start;
Beer battered fish and chips with shedloads of tomato ketchup on the chips and some mushy peas.-now I'm hallucinating!!:laugh:
Pork pies- the hot water pastry is sooo good,but if you blink 100 calories enters your body, and a small pie about 3 inches circumference is about 450 calories
Cornish pasty- large wrap over puff pastry containing minced lamb, potato slices, onions, turnips, peas. carrots. Another in the 400-700 calorie range.
Steak and kidney pie- beef, kidney, onions, beef gravy all encased in hot flaky pastry. Served with peas and boiled potatoes.
Sausage roll. Large Lincolnshire or Cumberland sausage encased in puff or flaky pastry. Calories can be off the Richter scale.But so wonderful with brown sauce.

Now, someone remind me. Why am i on the site?:laugh:

Im From the USA- California, but my blood line consists of Mexican/Italian: so tortillas and pasta are my down fall BIG TIME lol

Was born & raised in Illinois, and the staple out there is sweet corn....but I always go back for Monical's Pizza, which started my love of pizza!

Illinois, USA here. I literally live in cornfield! Our local foods are as fresh as you can get. We have fields and fields of pumpkins, peas, green beans, corn, popcorn, cabbage and soybeans. I know the farmers and we can have all we want of the veggies as long as we don't waste it. Win win!
A lot of people hunt and eat the cornfed wildlife like deer, rabbits, squirrel (ick), and turkey. My husband and son hunt ducks and geese but I won't eat it. We hunt morel mushrooms in the woods every spring. We fish and fill the freezer up with fillets to enjoy all winter and to have a family fish fry or two. I also garden and grow green, red, yellow and orange bell peppers, sweet potatoes, potatoes, cucumbers, strawberries, raspberries, apples, melons, tomatoes, jalepenos and a variety of herbs. I also have a few citrus trees that I keep in the house over winter. I've picked hundreds of oranges over the years.
So,, I guess the only weird thing eaten here would be squirrel. To me they are tree rats. lol
