Foodnited States T-shirts are now available here. The Foodnited States of America Poster, including all 50 States, is now available here.
In addition to being the creator of Foodiggity.com, I’m also the father of an eight-year-old. And, when most of the material covered on your site could best be described as ‘juvenile food-related nonsense,’ a curious youngster is gonna wanna get involved.
It began innocently enough with, “Dad… What if you made States, but like, they were made of food, like?” My response was something along the lines of, “That’s been done to death already, son… Go to bed.” Then, the heir to the Foodiggity empire added, “But what if they like had funny names like New Pork or New Jerky, like?” Now, we were on to something.
So, with an idea set forth by an eight year-old, and contributions from Dad and others, we give you The Foodnited States of America.
The project is based over at Instagram, hashtag #foodnitedstates. All fifty States are now complete, check them out over at Instagram or at Foodiggity’s Facebook page here. F-S-A!! F-S-A!!
I’m on it… Proud to say that I’ve always pronounced it correct. Also, Oregon’s Foodnited State will work either way.
Before he gets to it, I hope somebody tells him Oregon is pronounced OR-uh-gun, not Are-ee-GONE, as everyone east of the Mississippi mispronounces it…

LOVE the project. so cute so clever, and so well composed and shot.
A few summers ago I made 60 world flags out of American condiments and called it I Loaf Geography. Your project is more lovely, but in case you’d like another example of a sister project, here’s mine: https://tankhughes.com/?p=694
Thanks for sharing!
On second thought, make that Pork n’ slaw.
Kornses, obviously. Somewhere northwest of Porkansas, which borders Cannedturkey. Not to mention the back rooms of Washing-done-greasy, where on any given day, one may see how sausage is made.
Totally gotta go with Baked Alaska for us =]

For the record, my brother invented the term “S’moregon” many years ago (at LEAST 4), when he made me this killer pillow as a Christmas gift. https://scontent-sea.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/11060032_738232470034_6714924167457205126_n.jpg?oh=32c221ede87586fa78d231730950d1f4&oe=5575A2E7

I love this series! Great job! If you need more ideas, there is always: smoregon and fishigan!
For my home state: Illinoyster and my hometown of Kimchicago? 🙂
We absolutely have plans to print the States. It won’t be until they’re all done though. We’re at 25.
Are you thinking about making these into prints/postcards for wholesale? We think our customers would live a Swissconsin postcard!
