Welcome to Five Course Trivia! Five days a week, we’ll post five questions about something from the culinary world, from soup to nuts and all dishes in between.
In a break from our usual difficult questions, here’s a nice light-hearted exercise. In 2014, the website Foodiggity created the “Foodnited States of America”, which created 50 puns based on the names of foods and states and made an example of each pun using the namesake ingredient. For example, the Pacific Northwest gave us this:
So, I’ll give you ten more pictures of examples, and you have to guess what is being described. My advice: determine the state, then get the food. It should also be noted that the foods often have no significant connection to the state except for portmanteau reasons. Good luck!
Be sure to check out Foodiggity for tons more fun and offbeat stuff regarding all things food! I hope that this one day blossoms into a partnership!
Tomorrow: We continue our summer food series with some burgers.
