Like the title says. Like in Texas, you would think they eat a lot of beef and Southwest type foods and in the south they eat a lot of Southern type foods. Or, if you're hispanic, do you eat more hispanic foods or italian or german type cooking following your roots...

And you Californians eat a lot of fruits and nuts huh? ...

For me here, since I went to culinary school, anything goes... Mexican one day and steak and taters the next...

I learned how to cook Southern type food married to my ex because that's what she grew up on down in Mississippi and Alabama. Lot's of fatty and sugary foods. Sweet tea , pecan pie , fried catfish, cornbread, etc... Thanksgiving and Christmas were a diabetics nightmare!

OK..I'm bored and asking stupid questions at 1:00am AZ time...

I'll eat just about any type of food at least once.  Never been a picky eater and honestly I can't stand people that are.  Ex-girlfriend was extremely picky and would not try any type of new food.  

Every time we ate out she would order chicken fingers... EVERY DAMN TIME...  And if it didn't come with french fries then she would try to get them substituted from the kids menu.

Fried okra, fried chicken, fried green tomatoes, fried squash, If you can fry it, we will eat it, just to name a very few of the treats I was raised on, needless to say, I am a large man.

I made Fried Green Tomatoes for my ex one time. Those are the nastiest things I have ever eaten! I Love pickled green tomatoes, but fried

And with her being from Miss and Ala, you're right on frying everything. We stocked up on cornmeal and oil.

The older I get , the more I like to try new foods .
It actually has some scientific fact behind it
since as you age your taste buds become less
sensitive . So you crave bolder tastes .

I'm not talking just spicy , since I can't tolerate
really hot stuff like I did when I was younger .

The things I like now used to make me hurl as
a child . Things Like Blue Cheese , espresso ,
pickled cabbage , and sardines

I only really eat Southern foods really when my close family gets together for Sunday dinner. For the most part, my immediate family doesn't really eat Southern food unless we have a get together at church or something like that. Heck, our refrigerator doesn't even have sweet tea in it.

Personally, I mostly eat non-ethnic foods, unless I'm cooking which is usulaly Italian.

If I eat out though, its usually Americanized-Chinese or Thai.


<Side Note> Thai food is the food of Heaven, I'm fully convinced

We eat all kinds of different foods.

Since I got my smoker this spring though, we've been eating BBQ every weekend. I have been ordering different types of sauces and rubs from around the country to try all the different types.

this cali guy doesn't eat much in the way of fruits or nuts-unless they're stuffed in a pork loin or on a salad ;). I eat it all. Don't dine out much though when i can make a better meal at home.

AZ_Redneck,
If you live near Phoenix and you're lookin' for a taste treat...

Check out "Los Dos Molinos". Take Basline west of I-10 a couple of miles. It's about a quarter mile south of Baseline. I forgot the name of the street. The location used to be Tom Mix's ranch house. It's in the yellow pages.

It is THE BEST Mexican food in Phoenix.

Have you smoked your own sausages or hams yet? I get a lot of my supplies from www.alliedkenco.com

Great service and a HUGE catalog...

I'm about as white as can be.  This week I've had: Mexican food, Gyros, Sushi, Hamburgers, and pasta for lunch.  Mmm mmm good!  I also eat Indian (dots, not feathers) once in a while .

I eat food from alot of different "culture's", but I do like to eat the food for the region I'm in.  
Two weeks ago I was in a hotel in Germany, asking for a reference for a local German restaurant and the desk clerk was trying to send me to an Italian restaurant, and I kept telling her I just spent 10 days in Italy, I want to eat some German .

Ohhh, that sounds good.

Every time I've traveled, I've looked for local food to eat.  I don't know how people can fly thousands of miles to a foreign country and then eat McDonalds three meals a day.  

Trying local food is part of the cultural experience.

I'm very eclectic... but for whatever reason, I seem to REALLY like India-Indian food, and some of the great-great grandmothers's (American) Indian foods. Mix in some Korean and ... well, you get the idea. eclectic. But partial to those, and Regional (to a lesser extent).

My favorite types of food can be found at Cracker Barrel. I also enjoy good BBQ.

ETA: I hate seafood.
