  1. Oh lord, Denny's! That's the problem right there. Denny's does not have good biscuits, it's not a place people go to for good biscuits, it's a place people go to for cheap food of lesser quality. Marionberries are different from blackberries and are found only in the Pacific Northwest where they were developed, whereas blackberries are found everywhere. Bison is Buffalo (a bull is a male Bison or Buffalo).

  2. In Chicago they have the deep dish for special occasions, but most prefer the thin "tavern-style" for less formal occasions. Like down at the neighborhood tavern.

    The good biscuits are made with buttermilk- very flaky great with butter or honey. But best with sausage gravy – usually for breakfast/brunch.

  3. The 'square pizza' we have in New York is Sicilian style. Very bready, baked in a rectangular baker's pan, popular from the days when Catholics ate no red meat whatsoever every Friday of the year, not just during Lent. My father is a third generation baker and we had a family bakery in the Hudson Valley of New York, around Poughkeepsie. My family is from Naples, but there were significant Sicilian expats around as well. And the family bakery back in the day used to bake tray after tray of sicilian style pizza with peppers and onions and olives on it. The neighborhood patrons came down and bought one or two pans for their Friday night family meal, and the next day, they brought back the empty baking pan.

    There were other Italians from other provinces that settled down near Baltimore in the Mid-Atlantic region, and they brought that region (as well as a city in upstate New York called Utica) the square bready pizza but it was just the bread and the tomato sauce, and that's called Tomato Pie. Italian source, different development in the states, a bit of an acquired experience having no cheese or toppings on a sicilian pie, but it showcases the flavors of the sauce and I order one every now and then when I'm in one of the pizzerias in Midtown where that variant is available by the slice.

    My personal thought would be that the Italians who settled in Chicago brought some variant of the Tomato Pie but added back the cheese and changed the shape of the pan to evolve into Deep Dish Chicago-style, but the truth is just that you put the sauce on top of the cheese there because of the longer baking times needed with the added thickness you don't want the cheese to burn. So tomato on top.

    California style pizza is the thin crust with just a bit more dough and lots of 'fad' toppings that come and go.

    And don't forget dessert pizzas and semi-sweet pizzas. There's a great gourmet place around my neighborhood in NYC which does a great fig/pear pizza with gorgonzola cheese drizzled with a balsamic reduction and fresh basil which is to die for. They also offer a nutella dessert pie covered in sliced strawberries and dolloped with creme fraische. So… pizza is very versatile and available everywhere here from the giant dollar slice on the go on up to the high falutin balsamic & fruitin' end of things. šŸ™‚ Most every cuisine on the world goes well on a cracker with some kind of dairy product on top, and that my friends is the basic recipe for pizza right there!

  4. I've lived in Nebraska for 23 out of the 25 years I've been alive and Chili and cinnamon rolls or chili and squash rolls are a staple for my family every winter. Though we do spice our chili up with a couple drops of ghost pepper hot sauce.

  5. I don't know if there is an equivalent restaurant to Denny's in the UK. In the US Denny's is a (usually) 24-hour very inexpensive light diner chain restaurant known primarily as the place people go when they're still drunk, but want food at such low prices it's difficult to understand how they exist. I'm not a Southerner, but aside from good eggs and bacon Denny's is never going to be very close to accurate in representing a food.

  6. Ladies and gentlemen! Your mother is on to something. As a Native Floridian I've grown 2 types of Avocado, red and green. Thanks to a couple of hurricanes I no longer have them anymore. What I have always had as a young lad growing up were bacon and lettuce sandwiches. Never have I thought to try it with Avocado. Being from South Florida thank God we have an abundance. I will have a bacon, lettuce and Avocado sandwich for breakfast tomorrow morning. Because I payed attention I will have to let the bacon cool down proper.ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ To mum!!!

  7. Deep dish pizza is great, but many Chicagoans will argue that true Chicago style pizza is the pub served, square cut, thin crust type. And it tends to be somewhat well done, not floppy like NY style. You try to fold that in half and itā€™ll probably break lol

  8. I think Michigan shouldā€™ve been pasties, not Mackinac Island fudge. Pasties are so good. Iā€™m not big on ketchup, wonā€™t even put it on my burger, but itā€™s a must have on a pasty.

  9. American biscuits are one thing Iā€™m surprised havenā€™t spread across the world like wildfire. Itā€™s such a simple yet so tasty soft, savory, buttery treat. Itā€™s versatile too. You can make a breakfast sandwich or have them as a side with dinner.

  10. Iā€™ve never heard of putting butter on a sandwich in my 41 years on earth. That sounds so strange to me. Itā€™s always mayonnaise. It doesnā€™t sound bad, though.

    We do put butter on breads by itself though. Like toast, biscuits, dinner rolls, and crescent rolls.
