I live in Moore, Oklahoma. Like, right across the street from where that nasty EF5 tornado hit last year. However, I was born, and raised in Minnesota before moving down to Oklahoma.
My favorite dish?
Hmm, it's not really a dish, but the caramels that my grandpa would make for Thanksgiving/Christmas. It gave me something to look forward to every year. Still need to ask grandma for the recipe.

I'm from good ol' 'Murica. Favorite dish from my country? Um... Do we have any dishes? I thought we just stole everything from everyone else. =p I guess since I live in the south I'll say barbeque. Specifically hash and rice. So. Good. (Or absolutely terrible, depending on where you get it from)

Belgium, yes belgium that small country where there are more immigrants than normal people and no "Brussel Sprouts" are not our favourite food and yes "french fries" , chocolate and beer are what we are known for , so proud to live here !!
Funny you speak of immigrants, I was actually considering to move to Belgium if Germany starts to annoy me too much. Chill neighbors are chill. Also, Brugge is the most beautiful town in the world. I saw it, I can die now :P

@Blackraven My best friend in highschool is from Bogota. My second roommate in college is from Cali and they developed a rivalry
Well "Cali es Cali, lo demás es loma" is what your friend from Cali will say. Still, Bogota has its charms. I've grown fond of the temperate climate and the bohemian atmosphere in the historical center.

LOL, I'm an immigrant (though not in your country), does make me "not normal"? :P

The south-west of England, about as far away from Scotland as you can get while still being on the same island but nonetheless concerned and in two very confused minds about the upcoming referendum.
Italy here! (But I think most of you already knows it...) North side of Italy, near Milano, in a small town named Lodi Vecchio (Old Lodi, let's say), here was an ancient Celtic settlement, then became a Roman municipium in 89 b.C named Laus Pompeia in honour of Gneo Pompeo Strabone, a Roman consul. Laus was an important link, a commercial hub between others ancient Roman cities, like Piacenza (Placentia), Pavia (Ticinum) and Milano (Mediolanum). Razed to the ground by Milano armies in the 24th of May, 1111, Laus was refounded in the 3rd of August, 1158 in another place by Federico I il Barbarossa (Frederick the First, called Redbeard) and still today with her modern name, Lodi, is an important commercial hub between these cities. Lodi Vecchio, where the former Laus Pompeia was, is now a calm little town in the middle of green fields and some Roman ruins (nothing spectacular compared to Roma, but well, there's some history here...).
There are too many dishes here I like that I could post a wall of text so I leave it, for now. ;p

@Metalloman is stuck in old Lodi no less, just like John Fogerty. Now if you only had a dollar for every post you've written

For some reason I had always thought of you as vaguely British or norther European. I guess not. Care to specify?
I also still have no idea how I'm going to vote next week
Give me your chocolate *.*
Wand over the chocolate and no one will be hurt!

Beautiful, beautiful images of the glorious treat... The slightly more liquid-y varieties are what I speak of.
