There’s mushroom for improvement. Connecticut’s desperate attempts to make people think they are the pizza capital of the nation — which included a laughable taxpayer-funded ad blitz — have dried up like a gas-station slice, as a new poll has named New York the real US pizza champion. The Nutmeg State made a floppy landing at No. 16 in the nation, leaving reps fuming after the Google Reviews-based survey by Maine Lobster Now placed them behind non-pizza-focused regions like Texas, Oregon and Missouri. New York ranked No. 1 in a nationwide survey for best tasting pizza. Emmy Park for NY Post “Eat our words? Not a chance.

Every Lobster Roll At This Little Connecticut Seafood Shack Comes Loaded With A Full Pound Of Lobster

People Line Up For The Fresh Apple Cider Donuts At This Connecticut Farm

Fresh apple cider donuts, still warm from the fryer and coated in cinnamon sugar, sound like a pretty convincing reason to leave the house. And when those donuts come from a working family farm with its own orchard, the whole experience gets even sweeter. I love the thought of picking up a bag and somehow finishing half of it before getting home.
