A few words about food in USA
Well it is certainly different here. No meat pies and no fish and chip shops. So many different types of milk that it's confusing try to buy just ordinary milk. Milkshakes are rare.
Some of the more unusual items we've come across are based on:
Pumpkin: pie, beer, milk shake, and cappuccino.
Blueberry: pie and beer
Lobster: roll, and ice-cream
Peanut Butter: double PB fudge ice-cream, chips, pretzels, snickers bars
Beer: pumpkin, blueberry, coffee, orange, coriander, raspberry
There have been a surprising number of towns with brew-pubs where they serve beer made on the premises. All good.
The hamburger is the staple food for lunch or dinner and invariably good at cafes and restaurants. Definitely great value.
Here "entrees" are the main course. Not sure why they are called that. Entrees are called "appetizers".
In some places a 16oz cup of fizz costs the same as a 44oz! That's well over a litre, for 69c.
Nearly every wine outlet and restaurant we've been to has NZ savvy blanc on sale, same price as at home.

Tired from the
walking and tastings, we fell back on the good old American standby, the
cheeseburger from Burger King, so we didn’t have to go out. There are many burger joints to choose from,
but we’ve never been desperate enough yet to try the interestingly named “In
and Out”, or the “Kum and Go”.
