What food item seems to be exclusive to just your town, state or area?
I'm from NJ & we have Taylor Ham (aka Pork Roll)!

The product is generally eaten sliced and grilled, like Canadian bacon. A slice fits neatly on a round roll, and it is frequently eaten as part of a breakfast sandwich, most often also including egg and cheese.
I live in Milwaukee and we're known as Brew City. We are known for beer! We also have bratwursts and Friday Fish Fry all year long. When I've visited other states, they never had those on Fridays.
I live near Seattle/Tacoma in Washington. We have Starbucks, Nally Foods, Brown and Haily (Almond Roca) and Liberty Orchards (Appletts and Cotletts).
I think that when tourists think "NY" they think pizza, hot dogs
and pretzels
roasted chestnuts in the winter (yum!)
