As a native Texan I can tell you that corn dogs are NOT the most fatty food you can find here. WHAT ABOUT THE BBQ wtf

Man you don't even need to get into other types of food when we have the same batter a corndog uses put on ice cream sandwiches, balls of butter, and whatever else they're doing at the state fair. But yeah a million things around here fattier than a corn dog.

Exactly.

I thought for sure it'd be something like a cheesecake from Juniors.

How can people say 'yum' to any of this?

Seriously? There's a lot of food listed there that's pretty normal and tasty food. Of course there's some few crazy things (again eskimo ice cream).

How could you say no to empanadas?

I lived in New York City for 4 years and I've had a house in Upstate New York for 18 years and I have never seen the Garbage Plate. I thought I had the state covered, but I guess not.

First I've heard of it was freshman year at RIT. It's pretty terrible.

This list really fails since a lot of those foods aren't even definitive/exclusive to their state. Double down for Kentucky? Because KFC has Kentucky in its name? Stupid. I'd allow that if and only if they tried at least 5-10 double downs in every single state.

SOME of the things in that list look edible, maybe the serving is crazy but the recipe in itself is not THAT bad on some of the latter ones.

Seriously. You just can't say no.

Also, got to love those Rutgers 'fat' sandwiches.

Yeah, there's tons of worse stuff out here in California, let alone So Cal. Tommy's comes to mind, chili!!!

I scroll through that list expecting something epic from Texas (I know of some crazy plates restaurant's server around here) and the best they can come up with is a corndog? What the fuck? One of the few things Texas can be proud of is its food and they assign us some limp shit like that. Fuck that list.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Is Texas even known for corndogs? I've never specifically thought of them as something Texan.
They could have done something fun like beef ribs.

They're wrong about Louisiana me thinks.

This is cracklin. It's pretty much friend pig fat/skin with bits of meat on it (sometimes).

It's usually just the skin and fat.

people from NYC have a skewed idea what upstate is in general so where is this house in upstate if i may ask??

Plus garbage plates are tricky cause some looks awful but many places give you a bunch of options of what to put on it. So while i hate the "true garbage plate" cause i dont like many of the things on it i could make one that i would enjoy... though i only ate like 3 in my life.. all in college

The first thing I did was ctrl+F to see if Garbage Plate was New York's. Glad to see that one is still on top.

Fat is so overblown. Calories and carbs are a better indication of weight gain than fat.

Also they should have gone with Fatburger for California. It says fat right in the name.

Again, I think my torta suggestion at the bottom of the OP would have sufficed nicely. ;)
