Food is life, as they say. But it is actually, quite literally, life-giving in many ways. Some people even say that we eat with our eyes, meaning we do get excited by the idea of an aesthetically pleasing spread of goodies. From the early 1950s when Jell-o molds were in no short supply, to today, where Doritos tacos are a thing – we’ve evolved when it comes to food.
We have always, however, been quite creative with the combinations of foods we come up with to create local and national delicates as Americans. Take the State of Indiana for instance, Hoosiers, as they are called, loves its pork and corn – so you will find dozens of Indiana-based dishes that utilize the full spectrum of the pig and the corn plant. Popcorn is so ingrained into the fabric of Indiana everyday life, popcorn was created in Brazil Indiana by Orville Redenbacher. We’ve got tons more interesting food facts for you, and we invite you to explore many more with us in this post – so stay tuned.
