"Most Bizarre State Foods"?

I beg your pardon. There's a story out on Yahoo! News today from Shine about all 50 states' "Most Bizarre State Foods". Okay, sure, I get that. It can be informative semi-educational and entertaining, sure. But comparing Missouri's state food--the ice cream cone since it was first created in our own St. Louie--to Utah's Jello? Come on. No comparison. The Jello thing is so bizarre and really wienie, there's just no contest. As it is, America and the world can thank St. Lou and Missouri for this little treat. But Utah? Puh-leeze! (As a final note, check out what they wrote about Utah and their choice. Too funny. Yet another reason to NOT want to be a Mormon).
