What’s one US food invention you wouldn’t want to live without? Hot dogs? Hamburgers? Something less basic?

        Haven’t been to Harper’s Ferry in forever. It’s beautiful. I should probably take a day trip up this fall.

      It wasn’t invented in West Virginia, but I feel like the thing that I most enjoyed in West Virginia that I don’t find nationwide is apple butter.

          Yeah man, I went to a WVU game, that was a heap of fun! WVU games are such a blast.

          Folks kept talking about Pepperoni Roles so I had some and I really don’t get it. It is a basically a Stromboli hold everything but pepperoni.

      I’ve had similar food before, but never exactly that, looks good! The history is interesting, being invented for coal miners is a very WV.

        There’s good ones, and there’s the ones you can buy at the gas station, lol. If you’re ever in the area, I can recommend some good ones.

        A couple weeks ago a bunch of friends from college came in for a semi-annual get together. The ones from out of state were all craving pepperoni rolls. I begged them not to buy anything from a gas station / convenience store and to let me hook them up.

        I showed up the next day with $100 worth of these super bougie artisanal rolls from a local place. They were a hit.
