interesting american food??

[melly]

Hi everyone.. this is going to seem an odd request.. I am writing something and I am trying to use examples (available on the west coast or new york) of interesting, maybe a little bizarre food you can get at a store or a restaurant in the US. Obviously I am asking cos I'm not American, so I can't get out there to browse the shops. Can any of you post your favourite unusual candy or any wierd cereal or anything that you have seen or that you like? Or your favourite restaurant and what you like to eat there? Basically, any ideas of brands or types of food you like...

Cheers x mel
