[quote=MikeL][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yall can thank Winston Salem for blessing the world with Krispy Creme donuts and Texas Pete Hot sauce.
I also love Movarian Cookies, Im starting to see those in more gourmet specialty shops.
And I am always excited to see Cheerwine on the shelf at Harris Teeter.
Oh and Biscuitville (which is based in VA but all over NC).[/quote]

NC Native here... I attended Governor's School one summer and fell in love with W-S. Oh, those were the days.  We ate a LOT of Moravian cookies. (I also have a Moravian star that we use in our Christmas decorations... no one in our neighborhood has one and we've gotten lots of compliments.)

But you misspelled Krispy Kreme. I'm going to assume that's an auto correct fail.

How in the world are there so many people from or familiar with W-S on this thread? I (another one hailing from 'the dash') am amazed.

Don't forget[b] Texas Pete[/b] also makes green mountain gringo, which I think is pretty tasty for a mainstream jarred salsa.

And not just Moravian cookies...add on Moravian sugarcake and love feast buns.

It should be against the law to use Texas on any product that isn't made in Texas!! lol

BTW, all of those around the DC beltway, just because a sandwich has bbq sauce on it and has it as a Texas something or other, doesn't mean anyone in Texas actually makes a sandwich like that.[/quote]
Off topic I know.
Moved to Fort Worth from North Carolina and had an appreciation for Eastern NC bbq, especially with cole slaw.
Went into a BBQ place and asked for a BBQ sandwich with slaw on it. Texas BBQ is beef and the lady thought I was nuts, but gave me my sandwich like I asked.
Came back a few days later, ordered the same thing, she remembered me, and said, " I tried that the way you said, and it's good!"[/quote]
