    Lol That sounds like it would be fun to run through and hope you don't get caught doing it. If they don't do a corn maze I'll be throughly disappointed.

    Alberta, Canada

    Pretty much too cold to grow anything of substance here. But we do rely a great deal on our Canola Wheat fields. The stuff must be part of the mustard family because you can sure smell the stench as you drive down the highway. We often have Counties declare 'state of emergency' when not enough is grown per 3 month season.

    I wish we could grow a cold climate veggie. We would win for sure.

    Other than canola we are well known for fantastic Alberta beef. None of this heavy antibiotic grown in a small stall GMO U.S. cows. Our moo-cows are fee range eating fresh grass.

    Coffee.
    Coffee and caribou.

    But no legit if there were no coffee I'm sure 99% of the state's population would internally combust.

    Well Argentina as a whole country is well known by its meat, so Asado (kinda BBQ but 100x better) is our staple food lol. Most families gather on sundays to have a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig asado with choripanes (like a hotdog but with chorizo instead of sausages), morcipanes (same but with morcilla aka blood sausage), maybe some mollejas if you're rich enough lol

    That or pasta. Lots of italian descendants so pasta sundays with the nona cooking are pretty common around here

    Since moving I would have to say corn and pumpkin pie, but I don't really know.

    I'm from Alaska-The thing we're best known for is probably our seafood- Specifically, Salmon or King crab.... Or muktuk (whale skin and blubber).

    Unofficially, I think coffee is our staple! Coffee shops/stands everywhere. Gotta combat the darkness somehow

    Hahaha figured that'd raise some eyebrows! Muktuk is a traditional Inuit dish. It's way more popular in our villages/coastal towns versus the interior (where I live), and considered a delicacy if you can get your hands on it! Use every possible part of any animal harvested, nothing is wasted. Muktuk is served parboiled/raw, has an almost nutty flavor and is sometimes served with seal oil- I actually tried it myself for the first time last weekend, the fat is chewy and the skin crackled/popped >_O Had to say I tried it, but probably won't again lol.

    Picture below
