Cultural Differences

What are some foods that you never grew up with but picked up from another part of the country? There are many dishes from the north that I will take with me and enjoy for rest of my life.

My favorite two would be a U.P. dish called a Pastie and then a Polish food not found in the south at all called a Pierogi. I will be stocking my chest freezer with both before moving south this spring.

Picked up a ton but I would call them geographic differences. Being honest, I want to try some good tripe from the south.

Not really from another part of the country, but kimchi fits the bill. First time I ate it, I wanted to vomit. Now I crave it fortnightly and eat it often. I just about always have a jar in the fridge. As far as in the country goes, I'd have to say cheese curds from my time in MN. I drive an hour or more to get them at a place up north of Dover.

Kimchi is fucking awesome. Totally forgot about it.

Cheese curds are a good one, you find them closer to the Western side of the U.P. obviously. You can get them at Culvers also.

When you think about how its made at first, sounds bad. Then you taste it and its hard to stop eating

When I first moved to South Texas my coworkers invited me to the deer lease and we had nilgai fajitas, wild boar tamales, pollo guisada and cream cheese covered dove breast wrapped in bacon and jalepeno. With homemade tortillas, fresh pico de gallo and an ice cold dos equis shut the front door it was so delicious.

I moved down here from East Texas not to far from the Louisianna border where I always looked forward to the spring because that brought crawfish boils and boudan. Cajun flavors rock.

When I lived in Central Texas we'd make an hour trip to Luling for City Market BBQ which I'd argue is the best BBQ in the world.

I hear they have something called a "cockmeat sandwich" in Cali, maybe Red or the Bootlip Bros can shed some light on this...

You're confusing it with haggis.
Usually, tripe is refered to specifically as beef tripe. I suppose you could have elk tripe or any other animal with a ruman, it's just not the norm.

We don't have sheep around here, only cows. And a few goats but they have those big horns and a nasty temper.

All about the BBQ here. Depends on the mood and what you like as to what is the best place around. Thankfully there is a BBQ joint less than every 10 minutes driving.

I guess I should have clarified. Whenever I see a show about southern soul food, there always seems to be chitlings, tripe and other organs being cooked that the average person wouldn't eat. Always wanted to try them properly cooked. I see them in the store sometimes, but I'm not going to attempt cooking something like that to make a judgement for myself.
