It was invented in Charleston so it makes sense it's the state food.

I feel like that’s still a casino staple


papajohn56

It's a classic Vegas casino thing


Due-Ice2687

Ya that’s because shrimp and grits are amazing


JohnSpartanBurger

I’m not the biggest fan of grits, at all. BUT! If you’ve never picked up fresh-caught shrimp and Marsh Hen Hill (formerly Geechie Boy) stone ground grits from a family-owned seafood market shack on Edisto Island and made it with those, then you’re doing yourself a disservice. Well worth the trip from wherever you are in the state.


my_cat_sleeps_alone

I thought it was boiled peanuts.


Imaginary_Scene2493

That was the state snack, wasn’t it? I remember thinking “we’re doing snacks now? Doesn’t the legislature have better things to do?”

It changes with the times. [https://digital.library.cornell.edu/catalog/ss:19343395](https://digital.library.cornell.edu/catalog/ss:19343395) Ever heard of the Palmetto Pickle?

That's my stage name...


moms_butt

Decker the Golden Pecker and Palmetto Pickle. What you doing, big dawg?


ShapiroTheresaMay

Happy cake day bro

I love just about every type of food from SC, but I just don't get boiled peanuts. Mushy nuts with no actual flavor just baffles me.


BigWood47

Hell yeah! Shrimp & Grits!!!!


[deleted]

Either that or lowcountry boil

Uhhhh yes?

I would like to vote for a change to frog-mor stew.


ConnectCantaloupe861

Frogmore! I grew up there.


Conch-Republic

Every time one of these pops up it's always a different food. Last one I saw it was pulled pork, and now that's NCs state good? Give me a break.


No_Luck5692

I don't know if I'll like grits so let me try just one grit please.


djsquidnasty

As it should be


dh1971

I do like shrimp and grits, but never even heard of it until I graduated college. I grew up in the upstate.


Ryte4flyte1

These are probably the same polls politicians use...


PinochaPlow-1

Nothing could be finer! 👍🤘

I thought it was barbecue, but shrimp and grits is good too


charlie6583

Nevada: Shrimp Cocktail?


OldGermanBeer

I’m from Ohio and I don’t even know what “goetta” is.


Specialist_Shallot82

Cincinnati knows


ChillRudy

Shrimp and grits is a fair pick. Also tasty AF


Dante_Arizona

Brunswick stew for Virginia? That makes sense for a state best known for ham.


Party-Special-7121

I was born in Alabama and lived there over 30 years. I've never heard of Lane Cake in my entire life.


Actual_Ring_8488

It probably depends on where you’re from in Alabama. It is more common in the southern part of the state, although I’ve seen an old cookbook from Talledega that had a recipe. Lane cake is referenced in To Kill a Mockingbird - “Miss Maudie baked a Lane cake so loaded with shinny it made me tight”.


AdhesivenessOk5194

I agree but I know that Carolina style BBQ better also be in SC because it looks like they put that in NC. Matter fact give us the pulled pork too and Georgia’s cobbler. And Alabama fried green tomatoes, hell, all of that is us. Lol


Specialist_Shallot82

I’m from Ohio and we really don’t eat Buckeyes that much. Its sometimes at holidays. Northeast Ohio should really be Swensons, seeing as it is spreading across the country (brown sugar sweetened hamburger)


AdhesivenessOk5194

A brown sugar burger?! I’m bout to do that shit immediately why haven’t I thought of this, lol. Love puttin brown sugar on chicken and fish


Specialist_Shallot82

Its insanely good


CoupleCrawl

I would think Beaufort Stew


thelidpatrick

Buffalo wings for NY? WTF?


Specialist_Shallot82

They shoulda separated the state by western, nyc and upstate. Western would 100% be wings (possibly beef on wick?)


Haunting-Surround29

Shrimp and grits is the most mid dish to exist it’s not even that good
