Also, I believe Philly has a more highly developed food culture beyond scrapple and cheese steaks, although I have heard Pennsylvania described culturally as "Philadelphia on one end, Pittsburgh on the other, Alabama in between." Then the question becomes: Who's insulted more—Bama or Pennsylvania? I really had the core midwestern states in mind when I was ranting.

I don't know if it is because you said, "in New Orleans" like five times or "suck it, Ohio . . . and both Dakotas . . . ." Both Dakotas! Or if it was, "There will be cabbage!" I think is was all three. And for that, I L.O.V.E. this post. Oh, and the good eats, too. Yes, not much of a sacrifice to avoid meat in NOLA. Be warned, however: you WILL smell like fried seafood all day after eating at many of the fine establishments that serve Lenten fare. I think this is my favorite post of yours (so far).
