Here in Delaware? Nothing that I can think of. We're sandwiched (pun pun) between Philly cheesesteaks and Maryland Crabcakes, though.

Buffalo chicken wings first created at Anchor Bar
Story goes that bar owner son came out with friends, and were starved. She had a big batch of wings, put then in a sauce and served them Rest is history https://anchorbar.com/

 

[dilettante]

Basically a thick-sliced, twice-baked dunker. Most often in cinnamon, but plain and other variations can be found from time to time. Been around long before the light-loafers crowd began crowing biscotti.

Apple-carrot cake, with or without walnuts, maple cream cheese frosting.

Apples. I never yearn for the most delicious perfect apple because we're loaded with them.

Boil four pounds of small new potatoes in one pound of salt with water to cover until tender, drain and serve with melted butter.

People are always shocked when I mention one pound of salt, but they're really not that salty. (I know you know that, @Aunt Bea; I'm posting this for others.) And a very finely grained salt is used.

Now I'm hungry.

 

[Imogene]

Fried chicken

BBQ pulled pork or beef

Fried okra

Fried bologna sandwiches

When putting the salt in the water for cooking potatoes tonight, I kept thinking about this.
One pound - wow.
I do know that some chefs insist that lots is needed.
I do like salt so maybe I wouldn’t be unhappy.

@Lewkat,

In your opinion, which township would one find the best pizza?

I lived in New Brunswick for a few months in '77. My girlfriend (Jersey born and bred) and I went to some place in Edison for pizza as we thought it was exceptional.

 

[Jace]

Crab(s)

Seafood

Onions and carrots, there is also a huge hothouse industry which supplies lettuce, tomatoes, cukes, peppers, etc.

I visited Sun Valley, ID and had pizza at some restaurant and it was so good. It was in the early 80's.

There was a place on 5th Ave. in Paterson, called Lembo's. It was 1/2 way to Maclean Blvd. and we lived at the top of the hill. Well, they had the best pizza ever. There was an Italian store across the street from them and everything was totally authentic on their pizzas, including the crust.

I was here in the early 80's, pizza might have been in a bar called Whiskey Jacks, still there. Or the other place was an Italian restaurant called Louies which was in an old church w seating into the bell tower, no longer around.

chicken wings from 'Anchor Bar' restaurant,had them twice in my life
I love chicken but these are over rated in my opinion

It had a wooden walkway, I seem to remember, going by it. The Italian one I do not remember. Sun Valley was a lovely town and area.
