There is just no way you are going to convince me that you can't find something equivalent where you now live. People wax poetically about White Castle Burgers, In 'n Out Burgers, Dunkin Donuts Coffee, Sonic slurpees, and whatever other slop they were raised on. It's almost as bad as religion, if you didn't grow up into it, I guess you just don't get it.

All you have to do is try some of these supposed gourmet things for the first time as an adult and you can see that the emperor wears no clothes. I moved down to CA from WA a year ago now and I can't think of any food or drink I am dying to get that they don't have down here in one shape or another. I suppose that's because I'm an adult now and I can live just fine without Taco Time's Tater Tots, Herfy's Wacky Burger Box or the Pizza Haven Buffet.
