So, I'm curious about where everyone here lives, and any sort of food your area invented or is known for/regional. I noticed in the pizza thread a few people mentioned tuna and sweetcorn which I think is British?

I'm in the Philadelphia area. Known for cheesesteaks, obviously. I've heard the hoagie was invented here (uncertain if true.) We have the Texas Tommy (hot dog, wrapped in bacon, grilled or fried.) Scrapple (breakfast meat, a pre-formed block of meat made with pork scraps, cornmeal, spices. Tastes better than it sounds.) Stromboli, similar to a calzone. Irish potatoes.

There's more. I know Chicago has a deep dish pizza, Chicago dogs, etc...
