“From Deep-Fried Butter to Jell-O Salad: Discover the Most Bizarre Foods Each State Can’t Live Without!”
You know what they say — there are few things more delicious than the combination of sweet and salty. These also must not be very hard to make!
Oversized Rodent, Anyone?
It’s no secret that people eat quite a few questionable things in Louisiana. However, one of the strangest has to be nutria, a large webbed-foot semi-aquatic rodent that is simmered in a crockpot for many hours.
Although most people aren’t keen on eating oversized rodents, supposedly, it tastes similar to a rabbit (although not too many people can say they’ve eaten that either). If you’re going to give it a taste, try your best to not think about their horrifying yellow teeth while you’re chowing down.
Ham Hocks Are A Favorite In Georgia
Although the name could mean a multitude of different things, ham hocks actually refer to a pig’s knuckles. There has been a long-lasting tradition in Georgia to put them in stews or even serve them on their own with some other classic southern sides such as collard greens.
According to many ham hock fans, they’re a bit of an acquired taste, so if you weren’t raised gnawing on a pig knuckle, chances are you won’t become a life-long fan.
New Haven Clam Pie Is An Interesting Combination
When it comes to making pizza, most people try and stick with the basics, something most pizza connoisseurs also believe in. Sure, you can put just about anything you want on top of a pie, but most people’s first instinct is not to add clams.
