I was speaking from personal experience in the states I mentioned, as well as everyone else responding to your post.

You can separate native recipes from recipes brought later by other cultures, but the only difference is native recipes were brought by the original settlers.

Burritos are an interesting example. In Mexican rural areas, burritos were plain, as the people didn't historically have access to spices. When the burrito was originally brought to Texas, the cooks added spices. Now, you can find burritos almost anywhere in the world, each city making them with their own flavor. Just like hot dogs and pizza.

You could have a month (or quarter year) featuring food from the different states. Louisiana is known for boiled crabs and crawfish, as well as Cajun and creole cooking. Maryland is known for crab cakes. Utah is known for gelatin salads. Nebraska (Omaha) is known for its steaks. North Carolina is known for two distinct types of barbecue sauce.

When you bought the home, what did your home inspector say about the foundation cracks?

Call a professional to do a foundation inspection. Your cracks might be nothing or they could be serious. Only a foundation expert can tell you for sure.
