Pennsylvania: Tony Luke’s
Philadelphia is the home of the cheesesteak, so it’s fitting that the best fast food chain come out of the Keystone State hails from South Philly.
That chain is Tony Luke’s, a South Philly institution that has fast become a chained monster on its own, spreading their gospel of Philly Cheesesteaks to those who don’t know how a real Philly tastes like.
In a lot of ways, Tony Luke’s is doing us a favor by spreading their cheesesteak goodness to the outside world. Thank you, Tony Luke’s.
Rhode Island: Taco Bell
We had to mention Taco Bell sometime, didn’t we?
Rhode Island has joined the sad company of not having any chains that represent the state. Sure, RI has its share of Burger Kings, McDonald’s and the like, but none that stand out and screams, “Hey, we’re from Rhode Island!” At least Rhode Islanders can take in the fact that they have numerous locations where they can obtain a taco made out of a huge Doritos chip. That says something, right?
Sorry, Rhode Island.
