Good pretzels (Sturgis). Bologna here is actually Lebanon bologna. Chips. Really good chips (Dieffenbachs, Martins). TastyKakes.

I know where OP's from!

I prefer the spicier (not sweeter) Lebanon bologna, which honestly is more like salami than bologna.

Also, tomato pie and faschnauts

Wow, never thought of cheese curds as regional. They seem to be in most grocery stores here. But California is a huge cheese producing state. Number 2 behind Wisconsin.

Pasty.

Blue ice cream soft serve and unfortunately... Cinci style chili. Gimme the former, pass on the latter.

 

[Klayfish]

Cheesesteaks and chicken cheesesteaks.

Sorry, I know other places claim to have them, but they're not the real thing.

 

[Heidict]

Birch beer

I'd love a good Gitzditch pie. Local favorite back home.

Can't find Christopher Ranch garlic and seasoning products here, but know that a variety of stores sell them on the west coast. I'm no longer on the west coast.
