Forget "Red State / Blue State." I'm much more concerned about the "Red State / Yellow State" divide between states that have retail outlets carrying Stuckey's Pecan Log Rolls, and those that don't.
Stuckey's 2 oz. Pecan Log Roll 24 Pack $24.99
See also: the "RC and a Moonpie" giftpack and of course, GooGoo Cluster anything.
And I can't wait to get back to Ben's Chili Bowl and sample more of the menu. J'adore my regional junk food wishlist. What particular, perhaps peculiar delicacies are on yours?
I know Emma often laments the poor selection of candy bars in the U.S. compared to the U.K., Claire loves Murdick's Fudge, and Bryan wishes In 'n' Out would have followed him East.
And a special mention for the politically-minded epicure: gay cowboy couture chocolate rabbits. Available only in New York, of course!
Windowlicker - from the French for window shopping: faire du lèche-vitrine - appears on Tuesday and Thursdays at 10am EST.
I love shrimp-flavored chips and strawberry Pocky sticks. I also like Golden Corral's mac and cheese (found only in the american south), and I'd have to second Bryan on In and Out!

Something tells me Lux Lotus has one of those Dale Earnhardt Water Globes parked right on top of her Television set. What NASCAR fan wouldn’t want ol #3 in view while they gobble up one of those pecan logs? I like saying “pecan log”. I will be in LA next month for my In and Out fix and of course 5 or 6 carne asada burritos.

A really first rate cheeseburger w/decent mustard & ketchup along with crisp home fries. Did you see that some people that have eaten at Shake Shack lately have had the runs? (via eater) Incroiyable!

I had forgotten how much I LOVED Stuckey's when I was a kid. Really, it made me tear up to see the pecan logs. Thank you, Windowlicker!
