As someone who has grown up in the south, your observation about "sweet tea" is spot on. My mom and I joke about it and we just have unsweetened tea, still made as iced tea, but it is much better tasting and better for you.jjmainor wrote: ↑05 Sep 2018, 23:13I'm in NC originally from RI, and I have to say, I don't think there's any tea in the "sweet tea," just sugar.palilogy wrote: ↑11 Jun 2018, 21:42 I'm an American from NY recently moved to NC.
I will say I will always love a New York Pretzel and NY Pizza I enjoy more then the pizza I ate in Italy. (I still don't understand the knife and fork concept of eating certain food.)
In North Carolina we have amazing sweet tea, Virginia Ham and some interesting moonshine.
For pizza, I grew up on the thicker, pan style. In Rhode Island, it seemed like all the pizza places were owned/run by Greeks, so I tend to associate the best pizza with the Greeks instead of the Italians.
What would you say is the most noticeable difference between Greek and Italian pizza? I tend to get spanikopita or gyros at my mom's favorite Greek place so I have no idea how I would spot an authentic Greek pizza.
