Food Wars - Who Was First, Or Most Famous

Some of the food and drinks we love seem to have been around forever.  But someone had to create them, and somehow they had to become popular.

This time we're mapping out the places that created, or at least popularized, many of the food and drink we love today.  Some are unique, like Irish coffee in California, and others, like hamburgers, are the kind we eat all the time.

We want to keep adding to this map, so tell us what we've missed.  And a big shout-out to Wikipedia and the Travel Channel Food Wars show for helping us find these places.

Oh, and because some of these food wars are literally across the street from each other, you'll want to zoom in to see each place.
