Yes Rouge, thank you for listening to my insane ramblings about DBZ and Just Dance

Sup. I'm the Ratman, another shithead with a blog. Glad you could make it. Lemme ramble about myself for a bit

Disclaimer: Would really recommend you follow this blog with caution if you're a minor. This may be a SFW blog, but I'm still an adult with little to no filter at times.

Blinkies.cafe for all your blinkie needs. #flashing lights will be used on all my posts with blinkies.

Who am I?

As far as names go, Ratman or The Boys work just fine.

Bit of an amateur cook. Autism be damned I can work a stove. Not a grill thats scary.

I'm a seamstress when I feel adventurous. It's fun to dress up and cosplay a bit. Would love more time to do DIY shit.

Started T early 2021, top surgery late 2022.

I have cats. I love cats.

System-wise, we're a mixed bag. If you really must know, yes it started because of The Trauma. Although not everything has to do with our childhood lore. The soulbonds certainly don't.

If you guess a kintype of ours correctly I'll send you a Jolly Rancher in the mail /j

What do I post about?

Fandom, of course. Mainly DBZ and Just Dance, some Homestuck, maybe a bit of Undertale. The occasional Fablehaven if I'm really feeling it. Others to pop up as shit filters through my dash.

Fanfiction. Which I write when I feel like it. Will be tagging as #ratman scribbles in the future.

Art. I also draw when I feel like it. Tagged with #ratman doodles

Some serious topics I think are important, in some form or fashion. Will be tagged with #ratman rants if you need to avoid them.

#ratman after dark for anything particularly spicy. This gets a lot more use on my selfship sideblog

#ratmans lunacy for the kin-related rambles

Where else can you find me?

@saffronthreads is the very inactive selfship sideblog. 18+ ONLY.

Theres a system blog at @theboysbevibin too I guess?

@red-omega for stuff related to JD fictionkin

@jd-gifs for, well... Just Dance gifs

Who can interact? Anyone really, unless I hit the block button. But let's lower rent with a few gunshots, since you're here.

Pupgender bi gay demiboy with paw/it pronouns? Fuck yeah. Lesbian men? Fuck yeah. Systems with origins that aren't all about trauma? Fuck yeah. Kin with something "problematic"? Fuck yeah, just act within reason about it.

TransBPD? Nah. Least yall could have done was pick a word other than "trans". I don't care if you genuinely think there's a "disconnect", you need to respect the differences between race, gender, ability, and so on. You don't just "transition" between all of them like you do with gender.

"Are you proship or anti?" No. Lick on these nuts and suck the dick.

bruno getting leone an entire pack of lipsticks but the catch is theyre all slightly different shades of black

theres a sparkly one and 2 matte and one has a sheen of purple... dammit i want these

YES YESYEESYSSYSYESYSSSS omg he loves it so much and he really appreciates it but it also kinda drives him nuts because he keeps mixing them up and accidentally putting on a glittery purplish one when he just wanted a regular black, and bruno secretly just buys him more and puts them in his makeup bag when hes not looking

#going insane over them #i also want these lipsticks now what the hell #i only have one grey lipstick and like an ancient disgusting black one #i dont think im enough like leone to use that one. he wouls use it without question im sure. hes gross #i extremely rarely ever wear lipstick but. you know. maybe a good black one or purple one will change that #ask

like its really fun to reconstruct your meals to be without alternatives, or at least cutting out most. but sometimes it can be boring

salad with italian dressing i like. crutons that juat happen to be vegan. but no cheese, but thats fine

sandwhich with no mayo but maybe avocado, still expensive but less, but have to prepare more. not too bad. but then no cheese or meat. but onions and pepper and idk could be done

burrito with vegetables chips and tortilla. no sour cream. pretty difficult because the sour cream adds moisture. no meat and cheese is fine. doable but not enjoyable. as in force myself to finish it

pasta with spaghetti sauce easy. bread but no butter, olive oil is fine enough I guess. no mac n cheese unless using nooch. mac n cheese a bust for me

snacks are nuts and chips and crackers and fruit. i start to get antsy and crave brand name snacks could probably manage tho

no ice cream. nice cream takes time.

roasted vegetables are good. no butter

no butter for rice. makes things bland

so overall if someone were like me, theyd get food but itd be depressing

if they were like me and were able to figure what was most important, and what was more manageable then i think theyd be well off

if they are able to splurge then go for it

for me sour cream is a must but i can lessen the amount i use. sandwhich doesnt need meat. roasted vegetable sandwich with cheese onion spreadable garlic sounds good

butter is a must mayo lasts a while like once a month if i focus on diversifying my meals

ice cream isnt necessary.

i have the time to do this. not everyone does it tkaes effort and energy to change stuff like this

because also, cravings and change and all that can be near impossible to deal with!

thats why you have to always check in with yourself. give yourself challenges this is why I say have FUN

Bc if you dont have a legitimate reason for yourself making these changes it just falls flat.

going vegan was easy. but going healthy non alternative plant based is hard.

i usually go good for the first week and then cave. as in processed foods are made to be addicting.

but im able to cut out ice cream bc after a while i stop craving it, as long as im allowing myself some chocolate like chocolate dipped banana or just chips out the bag.

Sour cream i can lessen bc i love going overboard with condiments lol which saves money

i used to use butter a LOT globs on pancakes and bread and in everything. thrn i switched to olive oil sometimes and also realized i used it in things that didnt need it like mac n cheese

like when you get comfy with alternatives (or the real thing) you forget what you can live without its like you just eat without thinking

i had a friend, and ive heard this in other ppl too- going plant based and cutting out cheese and meat even when they were the biggest meat and cheese eater. and didnt realize how much was just habit

and you never know until you keep at it. check in once a month and think about food

theres so many products that come out and its exciting bc i want to try it. and i usually do

i just got like 7 bags of jerky nearly 6 dollars for not that much. its not something i need or even need to be emotionally happy. so when they are gone im going to try and find an alternative to that alternative like make a trail mix

yknow what makes it easier? actually listing the food you eat as meals. being able to visualize it so its not just going off of what your brain tells your stomach and tongue.

or else you end up eating a whole bag of chips instead of just having a side of chips

#btw i want to eat healthier for myself #im not upset at what i eat bc its good its delicious #but it just feels nice to eat nore vegetables and fruit #and also nice to save money!#and nice to learn more control- not as an ED. control like #actually thinking of your meals. bc rn i just grab anything and i end up even forgetting if ive eaten #but when i thought about my meals i was able to prepare them more amd better #i was able to enjoy them more bc i wasnt just putting items in my mouth. i was thinking about ingredience #and i was able to not over eat which can hurt.#those are always nice times when i do that

THE MEGA RP PLOTTING SHEET / MEME.

First and foremost, recall that no one is perfect, we all had witnessed some plotting once which did not went too well, be it because of us or our partner. So here have this, which may help for future plotting. It’s a lot! Yes, but perhaps give your partners some insight? Anyway BOLD what fully applies, italicize if only somewhat.

MUN NAME: Hela AGE: 21 CONTACT: IM

CHARACTER(S): Giselle Gewelle, Yumichika Ayasegawa (inactive)

CURRENT FANDOM(S): Bleach

BLEACH FANDOM(S) YOU HAVE AN AU FOR: I have gory Bloodborne au but that one just exists in my head on my lonesome.

MY LANGUAGE(S): English and one very specific Middle Eastern dialect.

THEMES I’M INTERESTED IN FOR RP: FANTASY / Science fiction / Horror / WESTERN / ROMANCE / Thriller / MYSTERY / DYSTOPIA / ADVENTURE / MODERN / Erotic / Crime / MYTHOLOGY / Classic / HISTORY / RENAISSANCE / MEDIEVAL / Ancient / WAR / FAMILY / POLITICS / RELIGION / SCHOOL / ADULTHOOD / CHILDHOOD / APOCALYPTIC / GODS / Sport / MUSIC / Science / FIGHTS / ANGST / Smut / DRAMA / etc.

PREFERRED THREAD LENGTH: one-liner / 1 para / 2 PARA / 3+ / NOVELLA.

ASKS CAN BE SEND BY: MUTUALS / NON-MUTUALS / PERSONALS / ANONS.

CAN ASKS BE CONTINUED?: YES / NO only by Mutuals?: YES / NO.

PREFERRED THREAD TYPE: CRACK / casual nothing too deep / SERIOUS / DEEP AS HECK. (i love it all sorry I am quite the mixed bag lmao)

IS REALISM / RESEARCH IMPORTANT FOR YOU IN CERTAIN THEMES?: YES / NO. i gotta know what certain human body parts taste like u know

ARE YOU ATM OPEN FOR NEW PLOTS?: YES / NO / DEPENDS.

DO YOU HANDLE YOUR DRAFT / ASK - COUNT WELL?: YES / NO / SOMEWHAT. it’s SO BAD FOR ME RN ASGLDKJDJKA i’m very inconsistent i’m so sorry.

HOW LONG DO YOU USUALLY TAKE TO REPLY?: 24H / 1 WEEK / 2 WEEKS / 3+ / months / years. / a lot of it has more to do w my general writing mood and if the thread im writing catches my interest, and rn im writing a TON of really wonderful and fascinating threads so they’re all super captivating for me and i try to reply asap

I’M OKAY WITH INTERACTING: ORIGINAL CHARACTERS / a relative of my character (an oc) / duplicates / MY FANDOM / CROSSOVERS / MULTI-MUSES / self-inserts / people with no AU verse for my fandom / CANON-DIVERGENT PORTRAYALS / AU-VERSIONS.

DO YOU POST MORE IC OR OOC?: IC / OOC. (i have a lot of stupid shit sorry)

ARE YOU SELECTIVE WITH FOLLOWING OTHERS?: YES / NO / DEPENDS.

BEST WAYS TO APPROACH YOU FOR RP/PLOTTING: just send me a tumblr instant message, i know it sucks shit but im not comfy releasing my discord w everyone just yet cause i use it for personal use as well. i check tumblr on the daily so if you send me a message chances are i’ll see it and respond!

WHAT EXPECTATIONS DO YOU HOLD TOWARDS YOUR PLOTTING PARTNER: i guess just be able to put up with my rambling and stopping and starting, a lot of characterisation choices i do go through various stages and its pretty messy so when i communicate that with others it usually ends up equally messy. just be patient with me please.

WHEN YOU NOTICE THE PLOTTING IS RATHER ONE-SIDED, WHAT DO YOU DO?: i don’t mind! sometimes ppl have more ideas that they want to share first and i’m always super happy to listen to those ideas !! sometimes its nice to have someone with a clear guide or structure and be able to work around that rather than trying to fumble through a plot together.

HOW DO YOU USUALLY PLOT WITH OTHERS, DO YOU GIVE INPUT OR LEAVE MOST WORK TOWARDS YOUR PARTNER?: i try to map out some basic info abt their characters that i otherwise don’t know from their bio or verses and try to pick out points of confrontation or similarities to expand on with giselle that can be used as points for like a starter to happen. its either that or sometimes i have really stupid ideas i just toss out there like ‘LMAO THEYRE BREAKING SHIT AT DISNEYLAND’ and go buck wild from there if the other person is down. i also always try to warn people or get a gauge for what subjects to avoid and steer clear of considering that giselle is a bit of a Freak(tm) and will say and do bad things.

WHEN A PARTNER DROPS THE THREAD, DO YOU WISH TO KNOW?: YES / NO / DEPENDS. - And why?: if there’s something giselle did or said that upset you, i would love to know not to repeat it again (since i do still feel pretty new to the rp game, theres still plenty of time for me to make stupid mistakes). if its just a general lack of interest or uncertainty of where the plot should go, then you dont have to tell me i wont take it personally i promise !

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY LEAD YOU TO DROP A THREAD?: sometimes i can be made uncomfortable by certain things mentioned... it happens but its rare

- WILL YOU TELL YOUR PARTNER?: YES / NO / DEPENDS. i don’t want to upset anyone personally and sometimes explaining the ins and outs of my discomfort make things ten times worse so i just. would rather not.

IS COMMUNICATION IN THE RPC IMPORTANT TO YOU? YES / NO.

- AND WHY?: i am the most nervous person you can meet and my brain is always giving me misinfo abt paranoia and random shit so i having clear concrete communication between two parties abt if something is going wrong or is being received poorly means the world to me.

ARE YOU OKAY WITH ABSOLUTE HONESTY, EVEN IF IT MAY MEANS HEARING SOMETHING NEGA1TIVE ABOUT YOU AND/OR PORTRAYAL?: i need it !! i still feel relatively new to all this and i need to know whats going wrong to improve !!

DO YOU THINK YOU CAN HANDLE SUCH SITUATION IN A MATURE WAY? YES / NO.

WHY DO YOU RP AGAIN, IS THERE A GOAL?: to help with my confidence in writing! i have v bad anxiety when it comes to sharing my works and i write a lot of other pieces alongside this blog on ao3 and i want to develop my writing skills just in general. when it comes to like the nuts and bolts of why i rp giselle specifically, its mainly to just have fun and have a laugh w my friends who are really awesome quincy writers

WISHLIST, BE IT PLOTS OR SCENARIOS: OH SO MANY! ive managed to fulfil a lot of my wishlist threads with like, giselle talking to characters she’s already zombified and i love all that angst but i want to do more stupid shit. i want to make it my personal goal to bully every quincy man and woman on sight. although a REAL dream would be if i got to write a thread zombifying a character who managed to escape giselle’s clutches. and more fighting! i want to get better at describing action and fights and i love to write giselle getting beat up and beating people up! more more more!!

THEMES I WON’T EVER RP / EXPLORE: hohoho theres a LOT... uh r*pe/dubcon threads for one, even if yeah i know writing it doesnt condone it, it makes me intensely uncomfortable to put my muse in that scenario, i feel like i have an obligation to like, protect her from that shit you know? racism is one i don’t want to transgress, even though i’m a poc, its not really cathartic or groundbreaking to write abt racism in threads its just... really fucking upsetting. also i know the quincy’s have this very close parallel to the whole n*zi imagery and ideology thing going on and i am not about to start even daring to thread that into my writing or bring those allusions and references of real life tragedies into giselle’s threads. i’ve already talked at length abt exploring giselles trans identity in rp and why im not comfortable doing so, so.... yeah! all those i guess.

WHAT TYPE OF STARTERS DO YOU PREFER / DISLIKE, CAN’T WORK WITH?: i like starters where giselle can just immediately get right into being a piece of shit. mise en scene and all that! cut out the build up and just get to the intense horror !! i don’t like starters where its not immediately clear where the characters are standing and what they’re doing and what’s happening around them. those really disorientate me and leave me kinda floundering because i always need some allusion or mention of a setting to ground giselle in a time and place other wise i cant tell what her response should be

WHAT TYPE OF CHARACTERS CATCH YOUR INTEREST THE MOST?: EVIL WOMEN EVIL WOMEN EVIL WOMEN. also just characters i can wholeheartedly clown on, or also characters who have hidden depths to them and have a single panel of screentime. honestly it’s just all over the place!

WHAT TYPE OF CHARACTERS CATCH YOUR INTEREST THE LEAST?: angry old men GSADJDKSJA i could never rp yhwach for example or yamamoto because idk. theyre just so crummy and boring to me. i also couldnt rp characters who always have an upper hand in battle like aizen. i like my dumbasses and i like them stupid and adaptive not just, ‘yes i know this because i Know this.’

WHAT ARE YOUR STRONG ASPECTS AS RP PARTNER?: i think im nice...? FKSJDKDJSA idk i hate trying to toot my own horn. sometimes i also think i make funny jokes and im pretty chill and laid back

WHAT ARE YOUR WEAK ASPECTS AS RP PARTNER?: my writing style is inconsistent and adapts to whatever i’m reading so sometimes it’ll be really good and i love it and other times it reads like really bad fanfic and i get carried away far too easily and write novella lengths for threads which should be much shorter. i also get shy a lot and dont think i communicate very effectively but HEYO we’re working on it!

DO YOU RP SMUT?: YES / NO/ DEPENDS. haven’t had anybody brave enough to try yet lol

DO YOU PREFER TO GO INTO DETAIL?: YES / NO / DEPENDS.

ARE YOU OKAY WITH BLACK CURTAIN?: YES / NO.

- WHEN DO YOU RP SMUT? MORE OUT OF FUN OR CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT?: more for fun i’d imagine because that’s just giselles own attitude to sex and relationships where she doesnt want anything deep. it might show character development in one way of just showing how she regards others in a romantic sense to be used rather than actually appreciated as their own person and show how selfish she is but yeah, more out of fun

- ANYTHING YOU WOULD NOT WANT TO RP THERE?: theres a few kinks and such but i dont think they’d ever really come up. again, just mainly no r*pe/dubcon.

ARE SHIPS IMPORTANT TO YOU?: YES / NO lets hope this doesn’t make me sound like an asshole, but its more like a fun little side thing than anything important to giselle’s actual development and characterisation.

WOULD YOU SAY YOUR BLOG IS SHIP-FOCUSED?: YES / NO. again, hardly anyone is brave enough to try to romance this evil cannibal.

DO YOU USE READ MORE?: YES / NO / SOMETIMES WHEN I WRITE LONG STUFF.

ARE YOU: MULTI-SHIP / Single-Ship / Dual-Ship — MULTIVERSE / Singleverse.

- WHAT DO YOU LOVE TO EXPLORE THE MOST IN YOUR SHIPS?: more how giselle likes to give over her power or dominate in different circumstances depending on who she’s with and what’s being done. BUT AGAIN, not a whole lot to explore yet.

ARE YOU OKAY WITH PRE-ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIPS?: YES / NO. - i mean im down for p much anything if it vibes w giselle.

► SECTION ABOUT YOUR MUSE.

- WHAT COULD POSSIBLY MAKE YOUR MUSE INTERESTING TOWARDS OTHERS, WHY SHOULD THEY RP WITH THIS PARTICULAR CHARACTER OF YOURS NOW, WHAT POSSIBLE PLOTS DO THEY OFFER?: if you want an evil woman to taunt and mock and hurt your muse, she’s your gal. you want her to zombify and ruin your muse, shes also your gal. you want her to insult and maim and injure, she’s also YOUR GAL. basically, if you want to do anything fucked up or sad or scary, she can help with that.

- WITH WHAT TYPE OF MUSES DO YOU USUALLY STRUGGLE TO RP WITH?: uh muses who get really angry quickly or don’t rise or respond to her jabs and are just kinda like a flatline. theres only so much pestering and annoying she can do until realises its not working and just wanders off

- WHAT DO THEY DESIRE, IS THEIR GOAL?: to find a goal worth living for.

- WHAT CATCHES THEIR INTEREST FIRST WHEN MEETING SOMEONE NEW?: appearance she always takes an interest in girls almost right away. age as well because she judges old people.

- WHAT DO THEY VALUE IN A PERSON?: a good set of guts to ruin and strong muscles.

- WHAT THEMES DO THEY LIKE TALKING ABOUT?: women, gore, murder, herself, music, stupid memes, gossip.

- WHICH THEMES BORE THEM?: politics, history, quincy ideology, soul reaper ideology, hollow physiology.

- DID THEY EVER WENT THROUGH SOMETHING TRAUMATIC?: her family tried to force the burden of upholding the quincy lineage onto her shoulders, she was thrown into the wrong prison and held in isolation, then pressured to become an undying monster in service of a god and then was nearly killed by that same man and left wandering without guidance or purpose. so, yeah?

- WHAT COULD LEAD TO AN INSTANT KILL?: transphobia. even a whiff of it in her direction and she’ll gut you like a fish.

- IS THERE SOMEONE /-THING THEY HATE?: the twink soul reaper who outted her.

IS YOUR MUSE EASY TO APPROACH?: YES / NO. - Best ways to approach them?: if you’re smart, you’ll bring a big bone for her to chew on and distract her while you ask whatever you want.

SOMETHING YOU MAY STILL WANT TO POINT OUT ABOUT YOUR MUSE?: i love my evil queen!

CONGRATS!!! You managed it, now tag your mutuals! ♥

Tagged by: @bazzardburner cheers chicken boy !!

riverparents + what they pick out of the trail mix bag

ive never got one of these before i feel special!! i couldnt tell if you meant pick out to eat or pick out to not eat so i went with the stuff they remove before they eat it cause i think everyons favourite is the m&ms obviously

Mary: she takes out the peanuts. theres too many of them and they’re her least favourite nut.

Fred: the dried pineapple (anaphylactic shock is a bitch on the trail)

Hal: almonds cause the slivers get caught in his teeth

Penelope: everything but the craisins.

Alice: pretzels. theyre too salty and also have empty calories…. the m&ms can stay though. (more pretzels for hal)

Hiram: the m&ms … hes godless and has no morals (more m&ms for hal)

Hermione: the weird little seeds… shes not about it

FP: he doesnt pick out anything he just inhales the whole bag at once

Sierra: the coconut. why would you put coconut in trail mix??? no good.

Tom: raisins... he doesnt like them

alexyar replied to your post “did u know theres a bunch of secret vegan foods that omnivores dont...”

but seriously, examples?

well omnivores actually do know about lots of these but here are some that come to mind:

tofu - everyone knows about this

tempeh - fermented soybeans, originally from indonesia. really versatile. doesn’t contain much moisture so you need to somehow add that when cooking. some people say it has a bitter taste, which can be removed by steaming it first. traditionally it’s fried, and it’s very good fried. super versatile. my favorite

seitan - made out of wheat gluten. one of the few vegan foods that a knife is helpful for eating. can be bought from the store pre-made but cheaper to make on your own, and not very hard. tons of variations, but essentially you mix wheat gluten, spices, and either water or vegetable broth. i’ve seen a recipe with chickpeas added in too. originally from somewhere in china, and i think very popular with buddhists in china? sometimes sold canned as “mock duck meat”. usually when i cook it i make sausage shapes, steam those, let them cool, and then cook them in my meal. great for making in advance!! really popular among vegan bodybuilders because you can buy huge bags of wheat gluten and make it in big batches. and wheat gluten is basically pure protein.

tamales - not a vegan secret, just something i never really ate before i was vegan?? and now its one of my favorites??

thai curry - same

nutritional yeast - gives things a cheesy/umami flavor. great as a topping. also a key ingredient in mac n nuts

boiled cashews - get raw cashes and boil them (or soak them) then blend them. depending on what exactly flavor you’re going for, you maybe add nutritional yeast. add lemon juice for tanginess. if you don’t add nutritional yeast but do add lemon juice it’s kind of like sour cream and i love it on mexican food. or you can just blend the boiled cashews into a soup for added creaminess. great way to make things creamy. you can also do this with other nuts (and sunflower seeds are used by people allergic to nuts). love doing it with pine nuts + silken tofu. the pine nuts in that recipe don’t even need boiled!

soy milk + apple cider vinegar = buttermilk.

flax seed + water = egg replacement for some purposes

coconut milk - great for adding creaminess to stuff, especially soups. if you put the can of coconut milk in the fridge, when you open it the cream will be on the top and you can use it like whipped cream.

silken tofu in baked goods - i don’t know what this “replaces” but ive had some brownies with this and it’s dang good. btw silken tofu uses a different coagulant than regular tofu and has a creamier texture. it’s traditionally used in japanese foods. it’s sold unrefridgerated.

kala namak aka black salt - traditionally used in indian food. it’s salt with sulfur in it. great if you are missing the eggy taste of eggs

dulse flakes - if you want to add a fishy flavor to things

turmeric - turn ur nuts and cheese yellow lol, very fun to do

avocado on bread - the classic is avocado on toast (i like to add nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper). also good for avocado bruschetta. GREAT to put on an everything bagel.

young jackfruit - huge fruit from southeast asia, but the unripened version is sold canned. similar texture to pulled pork. can be used as a meat substitute but when prepared wrong it’s kind of too sweet. i think you can help fix that by baking it a little first? don’t really know much about cooking it. i think that it’s traditionally used in curries (and probably other stuff) which tbh sounds better to me

clif bars, oreos, ritz crackers, spicy sweet chile doritos - commonly available snacks that are perhaps assumed to be non-vegan.

anything w/ chickpeas tbh i consider to be a vegan classic.

oh, chickpea flour - used in indian cooking, where it’s called besan. used to make omelettes.

that’s all that comes to mind right now! but also kind of in general lots of non-western foods. a lot of omnivores i know have never had so many things and worse than that, are afraid to try things! very helpful when looking for restaurants though, basically anywhere that’s not western has vegan options usually.

oh i should also add lentils?? i feel like omnivores arent as aware of lentils as they should be.

These Are the BEST Things To Eat In Every State

If theres something that screams, Americana, its a road trip…and food. OK. Maybe its just food.

But lets pretend youre going on a road trip to all 50 states. What are the must eat foods in every state? Im glad you asked, as Business Insider went ahead and found what they determined to be the one thing you have to eat in every state (and Washington D.C.).

The criteria?

They chose the most iconic and famous dishes by taking local recommendations into consideration and picking items you simply can’t get anywhere else.

So pack your bags and your appetite!

Alabama

Fried green tomatoes, anyone? Theiconic Southern side dish consists of unripe tomatoes fried in cornmeal and were made famous by the 1987 novel Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Caf. And, of course, the subsequent movie based on it.

Alaska

Because king crab legs are rare and incredibly dangerous to catch, this makes theman expensive delicacy, but totally worth it.

Arizona

Chimichangas deep-fried and meat-filled tortillas were allegedly invented in Tucson after a burrito was accidentally dropped into a fryer.

Arkansas

Not only are they known for cheese dip, but thestate even hosts the World Cheese Dip Championship and has a cheese-dip trail.

California

Seeing as they’re on the coast and the state prides itself on authentic Mexican cuisine, it’s no surprise you should pick up a flaky fish taco if you hit the Golden State.

Colorado

Don’t be fooled by the name. In case you never saw Funny Farm, Rocky Mountain Oystersthe iconic food of the stateare actually bull testicles.

Connecticut

New Haven-style pizza, also known as “apizza,” put the small town on the map.

Delaware

Vinegar French fries: Potatoesare soaked in vinegar, then refrigerated before beingfried.

If you want the original, they can be found at Thrasher’s on the Rehoboth boardwalk.

Florida

Seeing as it’s thought that Key Lime Pie wasinvented by sponge fishermen in the Keys, who condensed milk, eggs, and lime aboard their boats when traveling for long periods of time(with no access to an oven)it makes sense that you need a slice.

Georgia

It’s the Peach State, so obviously you need to sink your teeth into somecrispy peach pie.

Hawaii

Yes, Spam. Make fun of it all you want, but Hawaiians were introduced to it during WWII. The Japanese in the area startedturning it into Spam musubi, a sushi roll of sorts that is made with grilled Spam, sticky rice, and nori seaweed.

Voila!

Idaho

You know all about Idaho potatoes, so naturally you need some creamy potato chowder with diced bacon on top.

Illinois

Whether you’re on team New York-style or Chicago-style pizza, you have to admit thatdeep-dish pizza, with its thick flour-and-cornmeal crust, deserves to beIllinois’ signature dish.

Indiana

Hoosier pie(made with sugar, heavy cream, vanilla, and cinnamon)is Indiana’s official state pie.

If you want to walk it off, there’s even a Hoosier Pie trail for visitors.

Iowa

The pork to bun ratio is a bit off, butIowa is famous for its pork tenderloin sandwiches, which contain a breaded and fried pork cutlet bigger than your head.

Kansas

It’s the Breadbasket of America, so samplethe homemade, sticky, cinnamon-crusted rolls from Strouds.

Kentucky

It’s Kentucky. Would you expect anything otherthan fried chicken?

Louisiana

Legend has it thatpo’ boyswere invented by two restaurant owners and former streetcar conductors in New Orleans. They created them to feed their colleagues, who were on a strike against the streetcar company in 1929.

I guess it wasn’t a hunger strike.

Maine

When you think Maine, you think lobster. So of course you have to indulge ina lobster roll made with a little tangy mayo and served on a soft hot dog bun.

Maryland

And when you think Maryland, you think crab. So nestle on intoa tender, buttery crab cake lightly spiced with Old Bay seasoning, a Maryland original blend of herbs and spices.

Massachusetts

New England clam chowder, sometimes called Boston chowder, unlike its many impostors, is cream-based and full of potatoes and never, ever tomatoes.

Michigan

The Coney Dog is unique to Michigan. Why? It’s a steamed hot dog on a bun, topped with a meaty, chili-like sauce and diced onions.

Minnesota

The state fish is walleye, so enjoy its soft, flaky texture on crispy bread in a walleye sandwich.

Mississippi

The bewhiskered fish is a popular dish here, usually grilled, blackened, or fried to crispy, flaky perfection, which is no surprise seeing asalmost 60% of the countrys farm-raised catfish comes from Mississippi.

Missouri

Whether you call it fried or toasted, if you breaded and deep fryravioli and serve it with a side of marinara sauce, you really can’t go wrong.

Montana

I’m your huckleberry…pie, that is.

The berries are native to high altitudes, like the high mountains of Montana, and make the perfect filling for apie.

Nebraska

Like Hot Pockets? Then you’ll digRunzas meat-filled bread pockets can be found all throughout Nebraska.

Nevada

While the casinos in Las Vegas often look like a buffet of defeat and sadness, you can feed your feelings atsome of the most over-the-top buffets in the country. Fill your plate with everything you can imagine.

New Hampshire

There are more than30 orchards full offresh apples, so of course you need someapple crisp apples covered in sugar, cinnamon, oats, and butter.

New Jersey

The well-known regional staple of pork roll (or Taylor ham) consists of a processed pork product made with a mix of salt, spices, and sugar cured before being smoked and packaged.

New Mexico

Whenchili peppers are one of thestate vegetables, it’s a given that you’re known for producing fresh, hot chili-based sauces that are poured on everything from eggs to burritos to burgers.

New York

Nope, it isn’t the bagel. It’s the pizza pie, specially NewYork-style characterized by a puffy outer crust that gets thinner and crispier once it hits the middle.

North Carolina

HereBBQ translates to succulent, slow-cooked pork that is chopped or shredded and drowned either in a tangy vinegar sauce or a sweet, ketchup-infused sauce.

North Dakota

Burgers are a staple, but a bison burger is full of lean and juicy bison patties stacked between a bun with crisp lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and other toppings.

Ohio

You can’t go wrong withpeanut-butter-fudge pieces that are partially dipped in chocolate to resemble the nut of the Ohio buckeye tree.

These Are the BEST Things To Eat In Every State

If theres something that screams, Americana, its a road trip…and food. OK. Maybe its just food.

The criteria?

They chose the most iconic and famous dishes by taking local recommendations into consideration and picking items you simply can’t get anywhere else.

So pack your bags and your appetite!

Alabama

Alaska

Because king crab legs are rare and incredibly dangerous to catch, this makes theman expensive delicacy, but totally worth it.

Arizona

Chimichangas deep-fried and meat-filled tortillas were allegedly invented in Tucson after a burrito was accidentally dropped into a fryer.

Arkansas

Not only are they known for cheese dip, but thestate even hosts the World Cheese Dip Championship and has a cheese-dip trail.

California

Seeing as they’re on the coast and the state prides itself on authentic Mexican cuisine, it’s no surprise you should pick up a flaky fish taco if you hit the Golden State.

Colorado

Don’t be fooled by the name. In case you never saw Funny Farm, Rocky Mountain Oystersthe iconic food of the stateare actually bull testicles.

Connecticut

New Haven-style pizza, also known as “apizza,” put the small town on the map.

Florida

Georgia

Indiana

If you want to walk it off, there’s even a Hoosier Pie trail for visitors.

Iowa

The pork to bun ratio is a bit off, butIowa is famous for its pork tenderloin sandwiches, which contain a breaded and fried pork cutlet bigger than your head.

Kansas

It’s the Breadbasket of America, so samplethe homemade, sticky, cinnamon-crusted rolls from Strouds.

Kentucky

It’s Kentucky. Would you expect anything otherthan fried chicken?

Louisiana

I guess it wasn’t a hunger strike.

Maine

When you think Maine, you think lobster. So of course you have to indulge ina lobster roll made with a little tangy mayo and served on a soft hot dog bun.

Maryland

And when you think Maryland, you think crab. So nestle on intoa tender, buttery crab cake lightly spiced with Old Bay seasoning, a Maryland original blend of herbs and spices.

Massachusetts

New England clam chowder, sometimes called Boston chowder, unlike its many impostors, is cream-based and full of potatoes and never, ever tomatoes.

Michigan

The Coney Dog is unique to Michigan. Why? It’s a steamed hot dog on a bun, topped with a meaty, chili-like sauce and diced onions.

Minnesota

The state fish is walleye, so enjoy its soft, flaky texture on crispy bread in a walleye sandwich.

I’m your huckleberry…pie, that is.

The well-known regional staple of pork roll (or Taylor ham) consists of a processed pork product made with a mix of salt, spices, and sugar cured before being smoked and packaged.

New Mexico

Whenchili peppers are one of thestate vegetables, it’s a given that you’re known for producing fresh, hot chili-based sauces that are poured on everything from eggs to burritos to burgers.

New York

Nope, it isn’t the bagel. It’s the pizza pie, specially NewYork-style characterized by a puffy outer crust that gets thinner and crispier once it hits the middle.

North Carolina

HereBBQ translates to succulent, slow-cooked pork that is chopped or shredded and drowned either in a tangy vinegar sauce or a sweet, ketchup-infused sauce.

North Dakota

Burgers are a staple, but a bison burger is full of lean and juicy bison patties stacked between a bun with crisp lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and other toppings.

Ohio

You can’t go wrong withpeanut-butter-fudge pieces that are partially dipped in chocolate to resemble the nut of the Ohio buckeye tree.

In other words, get your eyes(and your hands)on some buckeyes.
