You baws down playing La cooking are killing me. My sister did 2 stints in the airforce and her job after also brought her around the world. I've had ppl over from a every region of the U.S. and quite a few from across the globe. Everyone, and I mean every single one who ate our food were tripping over their feet to get seconds. Go somewheres else with your nonsense.

The crabs have no flavor, you just get the crappy seasoning they dump all over the outside on your fingers. Boil the crabs IN THE SEASONED WATER and you'll taste the difference and way less messy.

Just because 3/4 residents are fatasses, doesn't mean good cooks abound. You guys are fatties because you eat expensive and terribly unhealthy foods (keeping you broke, and on the verge of untimely death; oh, the irony).

Good cooks are in Colorado and California, where people actually give a shite about eating healthy and taking time to prepare a good meal.

You guys swing through Popeyes and rave about "all the KrAzY KaJuN food culture!"

Yes, tell me all about their Organic, Locally sourced Free-range Kale and Cruelty Free and fair trade quinoa quiche.
Served on a bed of braised pretention and drizzled with a burgundy snob deglaze.

I'll take an alligator sauce picante from some chubby coonass any day of the week.

You had to import Emeril to put some life back in your southern cooking, so yeah LA. By a mile!

And you've never seen a German, Irish, Italian themed restaurant? They're nowhere to be found are they? You probably enjoy the great taste of tumble weed fed Texas beef too!

Edit: I never said the food wasn't good! I said the idea that every swinging joe could cook great in LA was ridiculous!

So the overwhelming response is Louisiana... imagine that on a lsu based board. The correct answer is South Carolina


I'll be the first to admit that there is a ton of "homer-ism" here. But think to yourself, if you asked a cross section of the country, who is known for the better food, Louisiana or South Carolina, what will the answer be?

BBQ might be the only thing that would get SC any votes. And all the dishes Louisiana are known for (Gumbo, Jambalaya, Etouffee, Crawfish, Crabs, Shrimp, Fried Seafood, Redfish on the half shell, Shrimp Stew, etc.) are typically cooked by men here. I know I personally cook anything I listed over my wife doing it. So although this is an LSU board, I think Louisiana does have a damn strong argument to be the selection. Now the question may have been asked full well knowing the answer

Those aren't unique to your state like Cajun is to Louisiana though

I agree with this, there are some horrible cooks in Louisiana just like everywhere else and it's worse here because everyone thinks they cook great.

Not at all, purely based on population, number of restaurants, fire stations and such, NYC would have far more good male chefs. Last week there was a chef, currently in NOLA, on the morning show where they autograph the plates and he started in NYC before moving south. Said NYC is known for excellent cuisine (best in the world) but New Orleans is world-renowned for their flavors in foods.

Racist foodies? I'm not sure what you are talking about.

I did mention that "soul food" is really just "southern food" for the most part and drinking Kool-aid shouldn't be considered cultural appropriation.
