The best Christmas foods in all 50 states

9. Florida

Featured Dish: Chocolate Covered Orange Peels

Three Words to Describe It: Sweet, Citrusy, Chocolatey

We just simply can’t talk about literally anything regarding the state of Florida without talking about something orange-related or orange-flavored. Chocolate covered orange peels have that classically bitter flavor to them that they’re so hard to pass up. If the flavor of the peels aren’t really your thing, some candy shops even sell some delicious chocolate-covered orange-flavored jellies to satisfy your sweet and fruity craving. If you’ve never tried this before, do it now! I’ll wait…

Have you tried this delicious holiday treat yet? Your thoughts? Let’s hear it!

10. Georgia

Featured Dish: Peach Bread Pudding

Three Words to Describe It: Sweet, Soft, Fruity

Much like the state of Florida up above, we just simply can’t talk about anything related to Georgia without talking about their state fruit: peaches! I chose a Peach Bread Pudding recipe because I think that it can take an otherwise kind of plain and basic dessert and elevate it just a bit. If you’re not a bread pudding fan, first of all what’s wrong with you? Second of all, go with a classic, but delicious Peach Crumble to impress your Christmas meal guests and keep them wanting more!
