If you don't live in New York City or Los Angeles, you are a flyover and are culturally, and culinarily, irrelevant. You should probably commit suicide as well.

Flyoverland is definitely a thing, but it's not just everything between LA and NYC. Other medium to large cities like Miami, Chicago, Houston, San Fran, Seattle, etc. are not flyoverland but when you get to little shitkicker towns in Pisswater County, Okiedokie you are absolutely in flyoverland.

The whole way of looking at the inland United States as "flyover country" is flawed. Whether a given city will have its own distinctive cuisine and local culture is highly dependent on the age of the city since settlement and the size of the native adult population (people who were born there, not including transplants).

Many of the newer cities and towns that have never gotten very big, or at least which weren't big until "booming" in the past 15-20 years, ARE indeed full of chain stores, chain restaurants, and really do lack their own distinctive surface culture. However, there are plenty of inland cities with their own distinctive cuisines and cultures.

For example where I live, Salt Lake City, Utah, is pretty big when taking the metro area into consideration. As a result, they have a very distinctive culture: the religion and lifestyle of Mormonism. Unfortunately, the city and entire metro area has gone through a boom in the past 15-20 years, so there are a lot of transplants living here. The city is also fairly new, in terms of being settled and then built up into a civilization with a viable future. Compared to St. Louis, Missouri, where I grew up, I have a lot of trouble finding distinctive cuisine in Salt Lake, much less anywhere in the state of Utah. Oh, I can find good Asian food, good burgers, great Mexican, passable barbeque (OK, that last one's a lie), and so forth, but there's not really anything here that just screams "Utah food." Give the area time to mature, though, and people here will develop their own culinary traditions, just like in every other older or large city.

>live in flyover, learn to make good food
>less variety in ingredients, really good restaurants are less common
>but I can still cook for myself and I also have peace and quiet

gosh, it's almost like each has its pros and cons. hmmm

[Anonymous No.8458621]

I've lived in big coastal cities as well as in smaller towns and I honestly feel bad for people from LA, NYC, Boston, places like that, who come visit a Midwestern city maybe expecting to be able to walk to a five star restaurant from their hotel or at least hail a taxi and they realize that they really should have learned to drive a car when they were 15 and a half like the rest of the country did - if they even have the self-critical ability to realize that. Usually they just blame the Midwestern city or the entire Midwest for not being more like LA.

[Anonymous No.8458630]

People drive a lot in LA. NY is another story though.

If you were on 4chan during the Bush presidency, you'd know that politics was a very minor facet of /b/. That you'd even mention this is evidence that you just showed up here within the last year, maybe 6 months, and don't really know anything about 4chan.

So just fuck all of WA and AL, only the best seafood in the nation? Essentially all BBQ, and the awesome Mexican food in AZ and NM? I'd argue Seattle is the best damn city in the country, easily passing NY, and in my opinion SF as well.
