Almost. We are talking about typical food in our families, but also teasing about all of the 'traditional' threads. Well, that's my opinion.
Fine,
I'll participate me too ;)
I'm allowed to participate as others participate too !!

That's the problem. "Traditional" means different things in different places. Here in the South (yes that should be capitalized) traditional means fried. Fried okra, fried squash, fried green beans, fried pickles and if you can't fry it then it probably doesn't belong on a dinner plate... though we will make an exception for collard greens.

I've never been up north but I have a trucker friend who has and he says up north you can't even get real biscuits. Or even sweet iced tea! *shudder*

Traditional food for you:

Lutefisk (Norwegian) or lutfisk (Swedish) pronounced [lʉːtfesk] in Northern and Central Norway, [lʉːtəfɪsk] in Southern Norway, [lʉːtfɪsk] in Sweden and in Finland (Finnish: lipeäkala)) is a traditional dish of some Nordic countries.
It is made from aged stockfish (air-dried whitefish) or dried/salted whitefish (klippfisk) and lye (lut). It is gelatinous in texture. Its name literally means "lye fish".
I'm usually not a great fan of fish because most Indian fishes leave a bad after-taste. But I think your dish looks yummy. :p

Nothing good ever happens when lutefisk is served. I've seen grown men cry because of it.

you people puree' swedes? No wonder visa's aren't required between Norway and Sweden. It's a lure.
lol... I'm sure you know this, but if you ever see a purple turnip, that's a swede. Now, I'm not making any derogatory remarks about falling off of turnip trucks or nuthin.

Key lime pie! Iconic in Miami and the keys...I gluttonously tried 3 different slices while i was there last week. I would have been worried about the effect on my waist but the extreme heat kept me sweating buckets.
