Yum Sugar recently came out with a list of official dishes for each U.S. state. Oregon, for example, is Marion berry pie. My state, California, has Cobb salad listed as the food of choice. Over all, they seem pretty accurate to me, but I haven't been to every state of the nation.
How do you feel about your state food? Does it suit your home or do you think another dish would have been more appropriate?

No surprise for Washington state. The only thing it could have been beside salmon would be an apple.

We have two state pastries: sopapilla and strudel. They both fit well.

In SC and I have never even heard or seen the state dish. Disappointed :(

Philly cheese steaks do not have peppers.

Some of those were spot on but some left me shaking my head. As far as Nevada goes, "Hotel Buffets" is not a food. Kansas is the fried chicken state? Really? How about one of the southern states, say Kentucky? I live in California and Cobb Salad is definitely not the state food for any Californian I know. The In-'N-Out hamburger is more like it, at least for southern California.
