Most times than not, I will always say yes to dessert. Cookies . . . ice cream . . . pie . . . yes, please! But if you were to ask me what Nebraska’s most popular dessert is, I’d have no idea. I’d just say, I’ll eat it! Yes, please! Lol.
Well, the insurance company Coventry Direct (kinda odd that an insurance company conducted this research) recently set out to determine the most popular dessert in every state, and they did it by analyzing Google search data.
For Nebraska, apparently we LOVE brownies.
Mmm . . . brownies. That sounds so good right now. And there’s so many different ways you can craft brownies. Yum!
For the other states . . . ice cream was #1 in five states, which was more than any other dessert. Those five are: California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C., which isn’t actually a state, of course.
Jell-O, of all things, was #1 in four states: Idaho, Minnesota, New Hampshire, and South Carolina.
Texas sheet cake was also #1 in four states . . . but not Texas: Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, and Ohio. Instead, Texas loves pecan pie . . . along with Arkansas and Oklahoma.
Three other desserts had three states each: Brownies . . . carrot cake . . . and funnel cake.
Baked Alaska was #1 in just one state: Alaska.
NOW I WANT DESSERT.
