Snacking is one of America's favorite pastimes and has led to some pretty inventive and unique treats, like flavor-packed chips with the crispiest crunch, delicacies you can only find in certain regions of the U.S. or even staples that have grown in popularity so much that they have become mainstays in pantries around the country. Whether you're craving something sweet, salty or savory, there is a quick treat out there that is perfect for everyone.
Reader's Digest "searched high and low" for the top snacks around the country, compiling a list of the best in each state that "includes state foods, local eats and more" to offer an impressive variety from fried pork skins in Alabama and smoked salmon spread in Alaska to "slippery dumplings" in Delaware and crab fries in Maryland. So what is it for Wisconsin?
The best snack in the Badger State, according to the list, are fried cheese curds, a deliciously indulgent treat that perfectly fits the bill for America's Dairyland. Here's what the site had to say about Wisconsin's favorite snack:
"Also called squeaky cheese (because that's the noise they make as you eat them), cheese curds transform into crispy, gooey decadence when beer-battered and deep-fried. Taste of Home editor Lara Eucalano says these golden nuggets, often dunked in ranch, are Wisconsinites' go-to at a brewery or while rooting for the Brewers or Bucks."
