(See full map at FastCo Design)Look around you — are you surrounded by cheddar cheese? Ranch dressing? Or is every menu you see overflowing with hoagies? What’s on many of the menus in your state sets it apart, whether it’s chocolate, ahi tuna or cheesesteaks. FastCoDesign worked up a map with a food industry analytics firm, combing 88,000 menus with 59 million food items to find out which ingredients and kinds of food make each state distinct. The interactive map shows the top 5 food terms in each state, with each “score” coming from the difference between the percentage of menus that include that item and how often it appears on menus around the U.s. So for example, while cheddar cheese is beloved in Wisconsin and is unsurprisingly included on 56% of menus in the Cheesehead state, it’s pretty popular elsewhere, showing up on 36% of menus countrywide.

Ask Amy: Divorced mom is debt-averse
Denver Post, Saturday - 05/04/2024 - 06:30 AM
Dear Amy: I am a divorced mom in my early-30s, with primary custody of my 8-year-old child. I have been dating “Ben” for the past two years. He is a great guy and he is very good with my son. We have been talking about getting married. He has never been married before (no kids) and I am gun-shy, to say the least. I own my home, my son is happy, and I am trying to be extremely careful about our future. Last week Ben took me out for a drink.
