Philly Cheesesteak
Philly Pretzel
and a truly disgusting concoction called scrapple.
From Wiki:
Scrapple is typically made of hog offal, such as the head, heart, liver, and other trimmings, which are boiled with any bones attached (often the entire head), to make a broth. Once cooked, bones and fat are discarded, the meat is reserved, and (dry) cornmeal is boiled in the broth to make a mush. The meat, finely minced, is returned to the pot and seasonings, typically sage, thyme, savory, black pepper, and others are added.[2][3] The mush is formed into loaves and allowed to cool thoroughly until set. The proportions and seasoning are very much a matter of the region and the cook's taste.[4]
I'm not from here originally so when I heard of the scrapple I wanted to puke. I'm not a big fan of the cheesesteaks. The pretzels are pretty good.0 -
Where I live meat (particularly pork) and potatoes are the main dishes everywhere all the time. Really bad food...0
-
roast beef and Yorkshire puddings... English food is pretty rubbish tbh0

I have lived across the world and don't really know where I am from as I've moved so many times but here are some of the specialities of places I have lived in, who can guess what these places are?
Deep-fried marsbar!
These weird porridge-filled breads
Stuffed wine leaves or dolmadakia
Sunday roast
Little skippy!
Vegemite (no timtams or milo though, those things are rank
(( )
Finally, vomit-looking cheese soup

Mostly pork dishes rule here though I don't eat pork that much. Popular foods here are adobo, pancit (stir fry noodles with somethings) though I'm not a fan of those foods. And of course the good 'ol white rice (hello refined carbs!)0

I wish I had pictures...
-Fried Potato Pancakes with applesauce or Tzatziki
-Bratwurst and Pommes (french fries)

-Schnitzel and bratkartoffel (pan fried veal with pan fried potatoes)

My birthplace is the land of BBQ (the right way... pulled pork, vinegar-based sauce, served with hushpuppies and tea so sweet it sticks to your teeth).
I then moved towhere models roam in their natural habitat, and they don't eat anything. But the rest of us enjoyed pizza. Famous pizza. On every corner.
Now I live amongst the cheesesteaks, hoagies, and crab fries. :-)0 -
Fried gator tail.
And swamp cabbage0 -
my dad is from south Louisiana (lake Charles & south lake), our favorite local dish is boudin. it's THE BEST, taken out of skin and spread onto white bread. YUM!
"...sausage made of pork & Pork liver and heart meat are typically included. In Cajun versions, the sausage is made from a pork rice dressing (much like dirty rice), which is stuffed into pork casings..."0 -
Pastes(not so sure about the spelling) are very popular in England. Great for a grab and go meal. Though I live in Oklahoma...mostly known for greasy food.0

Signature where I live?
I'm not thinking so. I live in Spokane, there's not much. So in that vacuum, I make my own neat stuff.
In my basement I'm making:
- Prosciutto
- Peach Wine
- Beer
- country ham
- landjager
- bacon
- lardo
- (coming soon) cheese
- (coming soon) bresaola
Oh no no no.... You have Zips!!!! *dies* I miss Zips so much. And Frankie Doodles. And the best BBQ in the whole world was Longhorn when I was a kid - I understand it's gone now? *snarf*0 -

Take it out of the skin? Never ! IMO, Boudain or Boudin is best straight off the grill!0 -
Here in WV it has to be the Wild Ramp. Being from Maryland, I had never heard of them. They taste like a cross between onion and garlic. From what I understand, if you eat too many, you reek for days! The season is coming up soon, so I'll be seeking some out. When I lived in Central WV folks would be selling them on the roadside.

Wild LEEKS! They are all over the eastern states. I live in Western New York, as soon as the snow is off it's time for leeks (ramps, if you must). I've been eating them for weeks!
Oh yeah, and chicken wings and Beef on Weck...
..and if you are from Rochester NY, I guess they are famous for Nick Tahous Garbage Plate.
