1.
I’ve tried many things so far but SMORES MAN, wow it’s perfection.
2.
I really like Reuben sandwiches.
3.
I had a friend from France here for nearly 6 months, and took him around the Mid-Atlantic and NYC. All he wanted to do was keep going back to Arby's for the Beef 'n Cheddar.
4.
Buffalo wings. Because that's modern day Ambrosia.
5.
Key Lime Pie. I think I ate a whole one by myself when I was in Miami.
6.
Baked cheesecake, Boston chowder, pecan pie and BBQ ribs.
7.
Gumbo. I’m talking cooked by somebody raised south of I-10.
8.
Lobster Rolls. OMG these would be soooo popular back home. They are the perfect seafood sandwich!
9.
Oof, I love Philly cheesesteaks.
10.
I lived in Asia and when I visited the USA for 10 days my entire diet was basically Texas BBQ with all the sides. All the Pies - Apple, Peach, Pecan, Key Lime.
11.
Cornbread. As a guy who moved here, Americans have got cornbread down to a T. Combined with some soul food ? Makes me smile on the inside. Gives me high blood pressure, but smile on the inside too.
12.
Those potatoes with cheese in it you make for thanksgiving.
13.
I have a friend who lived in Japan and China for a total of 6 years. The thing she missed most about American food was cheeseburgers.
14.
Smoked brisket. Wow! I tried this in some small Texas town and that place deserves a Michelin star!
15.
Anything fried: mozza sticks, onion rings, fried chicken etc…
16.
Given the level of Mexican food in Europe generally, Tex Mex is insane compared to what we get over here.
17.
Call me basic, but I could die for New York pizza.
18.
Crab cakes!
19.
An average diner with bottomless filter coffee, pancakes, bacon and syrup was my favorite part of the day.
20.
Biscuits And gravy. Nothing even comes close. A good buttermilk biscuit with a proper sausage gravy is heaven on earth. Because by the end, your heart stops beating anyway.
