Every State's Signature Breakfast — Locals Eat This Every Single Morning

Breakfast is the meal Americans are most loyal to and most defensive about. Lunch is flexible. Dinner has options. But breakfast — breakfast is the meal you ate every morning growing up, and your brain filed it under comfort before you were old enough to make other arrangements. Every state has a breakfast that locals eat on autopilot. No decision required. You wake up in that state, you eat that breakfast. Maine wild blueberry pancakes. Texas migas with crispy tortilla strips. Hawaii loco moco — rice, beef patty, fried egg, and brown gravy all in one bowl, invented in 1949 and never questioned since. Alaska reindeer sausage from a cart in Anchorage. Maryland crab eggs Benedict, because Maryland has blue crab and puts it on everything. We go state by state through the breakfasts that built American mornings. What's the breakfast from YOUR state that you eat on autopilot?
