As long as there has been civilization there have been food crazes. Cities magnified the thing. Think about 20th Century America - You had chili, hot dogs and apple pie as the cliche foods. Then soda became a thing during Prohibition. Then burgers, fries and milkshakes. Then fried chicken, sub sandwiches and pizza made their way across the country.

Cooked food was the first meme food. Do you think there were cavemen contrarians who thought that buy cooking something you lost the purity and essence of a food? These hipster neanderthal preferring their mammoth raw.

I went to pittsburgh last august, drove out there for a karate thing. I have to say I loved that city, only problem is I was congested the entire time I was there because I guess I wasn't used to something in the air so even though I was eating all the memes like meat and potatoes and that place in your picture, and the pickle thing, I couldn't really taste much.

also I slept maybe 3-4 hours the entire 3 days I was there, so maybe the city was great, or maybe I was just slap happy because I was delirious

Pittsburgh is probably still one of the coolest small cities in the Northeast, regardless of the fact it leans a little Midwest.

All recipes are memes by definition

when you think about it, all local food or specialties are memes
