I am currently visiting the USA, and before I leave I want to try some food that is “uniquely” american - IE, you can’t really find it outside of the country.
UK stores do tend to have a “USA section” which has a small amount of sweets and other products. But I am wondering what americans specifically missed / couldn’t find in other countries.
As an example - Wendy’s as far as I’ve seen, isn’t local to the UK or at least where I live. So trying that was a “unique american food”, to me.
I’m also in Chicago at the moment, so I made sure to try a proper (real?) Chicago deep dish pizza (loved it, by the way).
Alternatively, any other suggestions of food to try?
Immediate edit - turns out Wendy’s is in some locations in the UK. I just assumed incorrectly!
Thanks for all the suggestions!!
Thank you!
And you should get them from Portillo’s. People from other places in the US make sure to get some Portillo’s when they’re in Chicagoland.
Portillos got bought out a while back. It’s not particularly great any more.
Devil Dawgs isn’t too bad. Tried them and Portillos the last time I was out there.
Are there any others out there that you would recommend?
I haven’t noticed any real change, it’s still good.
Also, if you want the best hot dog you’ve ever had, visit Fat Johnnie’s. And for god’s sake do not put ketchup on it! Lol
