WEIRD REGIONAL DISHES
A Twitter account called @RegionalUSFood compiles strange localized favorites. Here, according to Twitter, are some of America’s most unusual regional meals.
– The Slopper (Pueblo/Colorado Springs, Colorado): a burger covered in green chili sauce and typically eaten with a knife and fork.
– The Slinger (St. Louis): two eggs, hash browns, and a hamburger or sausage patty topped with chili, cheese, and onions.
– The Cannibal Sandwich (Wisconsin): raw beef with onions on rye. Every year the health department begs people not to eat these.
– Snickers Salad (Upper Midwest): Snickers bars, Granny Smith apples, whipped cream and pudding or whipped topping served in a bowl.
– Chop Suey Sandwich (Salem, MA): bean sprouts, roast pork or chicken, onions and celery in a thick soy gravy in a hamburger bun.
– Frogmore Stew (South Carolina): shrimp, corn on the cob, new potatoes, and smoked sausage.
– Livermush (Western North Carolina): pig liver, parts of pig heads, cornmeal and spices.
* If you see any of these dishes locally in our city, please call the authorities.
* A few of these sound like somebody came home drunk and just threw some crap together.
* These still don’t come CLOSE to the foods at the Texas State Fair.
* How has Burger King not picked up The Slopper? It’s a perfect compliment to The Whopper.
* There’s not one of these that doesn’t sound like a sex act that could be in that new movie “Bros.”
* PHONE TOPIC: Do you come from a place that has a weird regional dish?
