What's something your state/region/country has that you couldn't get anywhere else and you think the rest of us are really missing out on?

Me, I live in Georgia - about as representative of the southeast as you can get. There's nothing like some good ol' southern comfort food. Nothing like a plate of fried chicken, collard greens, mac-n-cheese and cornbread. And best of all: washing it all down with a tall glass of sweet tea. I'm not talking about the brown sugar water the serve at Waffle House, but actual good sweet tea. I don't know what I'd do without it.

We also got our hash browns. Who knew a shredded potato could be made to taste so damn good? And can't forget about some fried catfish and cheese grits, also with cornbread on the side.

But back to that sweet tea, y'all just don't know what you're missing.

Well as far as food goes, there is a place that claims to have the best fried bologna sandwiches. IDK And the worlds most glamorous McDonalds. Yes thats their claim to fame. LOL

Now as for places to see, The Neil Armstrong memorial site, The Football hall of fame is an hour west and an hour north is the Rock and Roll hall of fame. Oh I almost forgot, The McKinley Museum and the Packard Museum.

There is a reason it is called "Beautiful BC".

Ocean, mountains, rain forest, frozen north to semi-arid regions...

World class skiing, whitewater rafting, art and culture...

Fruit orchards and vineyards ...

Easy going lifestyle ...

oh my! I do love it here! love

1. Broadway
2. Metropolitan Museum of Art (one of the three best art museums in the world)
3. All the other culture and sights that makes NYC one of the premier destinations in the world.
*4. The best pizza
*5. the best bagels


*I've been to 42 states and sampled pizza in just about all of them and bagels in maybe half. No place else is even close.
