9 Strange Food Combinations Only People In West Virginia Will Love
It doesn’t get a lot of positive recognition, but here in West Virginia, we have some great food. Appalachian cuisine — the stuff that our grandmothers and mothers have been making for Sunday dinners for generations — is delicious. But not all of it is appetizing to the rest of the world. Some of it is a little strange.
Here are a few examples:

I never tried this, to be honest. But I know some people who swear by it. Do you all like it?

I always had my cornbread with regular milk, but I know some people prefer it with buttermilk. Buttermilk sounds delicious, too.

This one is definitely a traditional Appalachian dish. It's also very filling.

OK, so maybe this one is the least exclusive to West Virginia, but it's very much a favorite here.

We love our biscuits here. And what could be better than apple butter? Definitely a fall-time favorite.

Well, ramps and anything is a combination that's unique to West Virginia. But ramps are great with potatoes.

These are popular in the northern part of the state. I've never had them but I'll have to try it the next time I'm up that way.

This is the best way to enjoy barbecue, in my humble opinion.
