Well, some about me, I suppose. Hi! My name is Heather and I am really passionate about trying new things! I started a blog about 4 years ago called Edible UN (www.edibleUN.wordpress.com) in which I made a full meal AND bread from every country in the United Nations. It was a long process that took 3.7 years to complete, but after my sweetheart and I sampled the cuisine of every nation on Earth, we were hooked! It was so much FUN going on a gastronomical safari that I knew I couldn’t stop there!
So, here we are! In this blog, we will be sampling the dinner table traditions of each of the 50 states in the United States. Our history is one of immigrants, ingenuity, and deeply held ties to the land. I’m really excited to see how these three things have influenced the way we eat.
We will be dining in historical order. That is, in the order that each state joined the Union. I hope you enjoy this trip around the United States and that you find yourself inspired to branch out and taste all of the different things this wonderful world has to offer!
