This will have been drawn from the work of Erin Reed Though its worth noting her only firm, DO NOT TRAVEL, so far, is florida. Though the rest are of course still dangerous.

Let's be honest: Is there anything worth visiting in those missing states, anyway? Sure, Disney World is in Florida, but have you ever been to Florida? It sucks. Hot and humid as shit. Rains every single day at about 5pm. Gators and Floridians everywhere... Even the magic of Disney doesn't outweigh all that.

Cajun food is great. Basically, southern food in general is good. You can't get boiled peanuts up north. Besides food? Not really.

Do you know how easy it is making boiled peanuts?

Its literally just peanuts boiled in salty water forever

Super easy in a slowcooker or even a regular pot

You can have them whenever and wherever you want

Note: the above is talking about raw peanuts, which are very hard to find up north. Doing this to a bag of roasted peanuts will make you very sad.

Ok fair point. Raw peanuts arent too hard to find here down south. There is a farmers market grocery store by me that i can get them delivered from

I did try it with roasted peanuts the first time and like... it technically worked but raw peanuts turn out way better
