In fairness to them… BBQ comes from Virginia. But we didn't really develop our own unique style, so it sort of faded out somewhat. We have BBQ here and it's usually NC or some other style (I think generally sort-of-TX more than anything, but NOT quite TX). We have some good places and some meh places.

It sucks that we don't have VA style BBQ, but............ eh. I'll take good food whatever the source. :)

I'm a food enthusiast, personally. I love the fusion of cuisines. For example, many European cuisines were able to do amazing things with tomatoes and potatoes. And one of my favorite dishes involves Japanese curry, which went from India to England to Japan.

We have so many tasty food options these days, and it's because you can get so many more ingredients all over, and people share ideas and "steal" ideas and make them their own and make them better. :)
