Wow, this should take me down memory lane...
Minnesota: too young to remember any foods
Massachusetts/Maine: steamers, lobster, fried clams, apples and pears off our own trees, oh and those sausage/onion/pepper sandwiches sold late night off carts around downtown Boston...we had a love/hate relationship with those!
Michigan: apple picking, maple-sugar candy, cider mill donuts, raspberries growing wild in our backyard
Wisconsin: Kringle, brats, frozen custard and cheese
Poconos: nothing worth remembering!
Florida: strawberries from Plant City and fresh sqeezed OJ from the orchard farms place across the street from us... Oh, and Greek salads with potato salad on them from Tarpon Springs (totally a Tarpon Greek tradition). And from the other coast - we knew an amazing fisherman who would fish in the am to stock his tiny dive restaurant in the PM with the most amazing fish. YUM!
North Carolina: we were fans of a Virginia winery and my husband loved the sweet tea and the BBQ (not my favorites)
Oregon: too many things to list! Blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, hazelnuts, walnuts, salmon, apples, pears, grapes, blueberries, wine, beer, etc.
