Update...

Some of the highlights from the book: from Minnesota sour cream raisin pie. It has sweet custard, raisins, sour cream. It basically looks like a meringue pie. Also from Minne a pie shake. That's right. An entire slice of pie with ice cream and milk thrown into a blender and made into a shake. Apparently its most effective with banana cream or key lime pie. From Wisconsin, something called Hoppel-poppel. It is browned potatoes, chunks of salami, creamy scrambled eggs all mixed together. From Louisiana something called Oreille de cochon or Pig's ear. It's fried dough that is filled with spicy boudin sausage and powdered with sugar. From Tennessee barbecue spaghetti which is laced with shreds of smokey meat. I myself one day want to try barbecue salad. There was numerous interesting foods and facts in the book. It was an awesome read.
