Metralla, I hope someone corrects me if I am wrong, but cream cheese may come from Philly. We don't take it too seriously, as New Yawkas embrace it more for their bagels. Perfect weather is nothing to sneeze at. My only question is, does it get boring after a while? We get it so rarely that when it does come we go absolutely batty from not knowing how to handle it.
I should have said "yous guys" like we always do when speaking, but I write better than I speak(so you can tell how badly I speak).
I forgot about ice cream. Philadelphia ice cream is a different process, and people still think it is the best way to make it. Unfortunately, neither Breyer's nor Bassett's are made here any longer.
Gunbei, you got me. Yes, the Executioner is in my opinion, the best boxer of the past 5 years. He wants to prove it too. Says emphatically he will go up and down in weight to straight up knock out all the boxers people talk about more than him - Oscar, Roy Jones, etc. Tip of the hat to Joey Giardello and Joe Frazier(even though he's really from South Carolina) and a long line of Philly left hookers.
Great list Nrchy, I really want to try the brats and cheese of Wisconsin. Diverse ethnicity is just as you said, great restaurants, I know just what you mean as we are also lucky enough to have that here.
Chuck, I love your list, Number 2 excepted. They say you haven't really eaten a peach until you've been to Georgia. While our Jersey peaches are heaven, I have to believe that those from Georgia are on another level.
Which just made me remember - Jersey tomatoes and corn, and to a lesser degree, blueberries and cranberries. That's why they call it the Garden State.
Oh, and on our (Pennsylvania) side, we have the Mushroom Capital of the world in Kennet Square, PA. I guess you could then say we are all full of %$@& around here, as many have said of me here.
