A Trip Over To Da UP Eh

The other day I had to drive about an hour east of where I live to go to my dentist (why I travel an hour to go to the dentist is a long story). Anyhow, I crossed the Wisco state line into the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. For anyone who thinks the UP is just the top of Michigan is greatly mistaken. The people of the UP refer to themselves as "Yoopers" and the rest of Michigan is simply "the other side of the Bridge". If one visits in winter you'll see snow up to the houses windows. They get anywhere from 200-300 inches of snow a year in many places (not bad for an elevation of around 1300 or less). While I was over there I couldn't help but buy an infamous yooper pasty. Normally I'm a fairly healthy eater (organic, local, little meat), but regional food has a way to tempt me. So I plunked down $3.00 for a artery clogging meat and potato filled pasty at Joe's Pasty shop in Ironwood. The pasty was brought to the UP by cornish miners (More on the history of the UP pasty here) and has stayed there ever since.
As I mentioned before regional foods tempt me with fascination. Here in Wisconsin every bar seems to have the best Friday Night Fish Fry. We also have deep fried cheese curds. Chicago has both stuffed pizzas and Chicago Hot Dogs (celery salt is the secret there). When I'm in coastal Washington I buy oysters. I know New Orleans is all about Cajun. I've even tried alligator in Florida. So I'm curious, what other regional foods are out there?
