Foods that Washington Does Better Than Anyone
Washington is known for a lot of things and near the top of that list has to be the great food we have. Here's a small list of things we have in Washington that you won't find a better quality anywhere else.
Apples
New York may be the "Big Apple," but I bet they don't have apples as big as the ones we grow here.
Beer
Being that the Yakima Valley alone provides 75 percent of the hops used in the U.S., it's no wonder we have the best beers in the world.
Wine
Yeah, we have wine, too. Travelers come from all over to go on wine tours.
Onions
I'll just throw this out there - I don't care for onions at all. However, when used correctly the sweet onions from Walla Walla can turn any dish into a masterpiece.
Almond Roca
When I was growing up, I thought Almond Roca was the fanciest candy in the world. Did you know Almond Roca comes from Tacoma? That counts!
Cherries
Although Rainier cherries are probably the best, all of our cherries are grown better than anywhere else.
