Had buckeye trees in my yard growing up in NE Ohio, and they looked like the bottom picture ... ... poison.

I must have lived on the poor side of town .... guess the rich kids grew up with peanut butter and chocolate buckeye trees. ..nthego:

Gram used to always keep a buckeye in her purse (...one of "those"). It was supposed to bring good luck.

Thanks, I always thought that the Horse Chestnuts we have in our area were just another name for Buckeyes.

I had thought so too Bea ... always learning something.

Did know about making necklaces (did that), and also carrying them for good luck. Thanks Meanderer.

My gram always had an acorn in her purse for good luck. Guess we didn't have any buckeyes.

For Pennsylvania, they show the Philly Cheese Steak Hoagie as the State food. In 1964, when I was stationed at Fort Dix NJ, following Basic, We would go into Philly occasionally and I had quite a few! Most of the time I got them at the PX, on the Post.

Acorns were more plentiful, than Unicorns!

Georgia came out looking good on that last chart. Peach pie is much better than fake buckeyes.
