Alabama's signature dish is smoked chicken with white sauce: "The chicken is smoked for hours and served with white sauce".
Who could've guessed, so insightful.

Having been born and raised in California, I do love that you all just went with 'Avocado'. Not even a specific dish, just avocado. Excellent.

Coffee may be the most common thing in Washington, but we also have a massive amount of apple themed foods in the eastern parts of the state, especially caramel apples around my town.

[amyshaw]

All other states: ribs, potatoes, sandwiches etc.

Utah: Jello

As a Texan, I can say that BBQ is **really** popular. But, I don’t care if it originated in Texas or not, Texans absolutely cannot get enough of their pecan pie. It’s sweet, full of cinnamon, and of course, pecans. It’s absolutely amazing and I’m really disappointed that they didn’t add it because it’s literally our state dessert.

I'm from Tennessee and frankly I'm quite disappointed y'all put Memphis Ribs over Nashville Hot Chicken. It's literally our staple food at this point considering how big Hot Chicken has gotten.

[petergriffiinbirdistheword]

I can confirm, we love crab cakes. I didn't even realize how good we had it until I ordered it elsewhere and realized other states can't cook it at all. Most accurate list I've seen yet.

[meghanogilvie]

Me who lives in colorado: Sooo is it our trout, palisade peaches, or maybe bison?

Food Insider: *Nope. Bull testicles*

Our family moved to WA State from MN back in 1977 after nearly 10 years of living there. I was only 2 years old. But, grew up on tater tot casserole. I was told it was one of the many recipes my mom took with her from MN. And, so it explains it as a MN favorite food.
