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!!
A poster will be available soon.
can I buy a poster of all these for my kitchen??
Months ago when I first saw this, I thought the most obvious one for Oklahoma was Okrahoma (as in fried okra, we eat a ton of it here, lol), but they went with Oklahummus, something which almost no Okie would be caught dead eating! I would have made the suggestion, but I don’t do Facebook and, frankly, I’m sick to death of sites trying to shove it down my throat (as well as Twitter, Instagram and every other narcissistic, self-absorbed genre of media these days). There is a whole world outside of these sites people…break free from the herd mentality, get a personality all your own, maybe even an imagination…you just might find it liberating. 🙂
Alabama should be alahama or alajama
I want a poster/print of the complete collection when done!! Please add to your shop!
Spill-Annoy, just a mess…
Banan-indiana, self-explanatory
Creative geography lessons… these are great! How about a fairly simple cutout from a stick of Wrigley’s gum for Massachewsetts, Cameron?
Where is Bacon Etiquette?? (Cause everyone knows Connecticut is all bout that etiquette… and bacon)
A poster of the entire Foodnited States is planned.
I would love to see a poster print of this series!
“Spamaska” or “Spamalaska” Spam is a staple in the Alaska Bush. Good luck – what fun!
