Lobster Rolls, the fresh kind you can only get in The Maritimes. I swear if I had enough money I would go all the way there just to have one.

I had to look fried mush up because I had never heard of it, reading the recipe, we use to have this, too, but, we called it fried bread.

All the igredients are the same, except the recipe for mush said to put it in a loaf pan, the bread we fried, was friend in an iron skillet and you made bread patties and fried. YUM!

Baby Spinich... both in the raw or cooked... oooh so YUMMY.

I also agree with those about the Sweet Potato... its also one of the worlds most perfect foods.

Another underrated food I'd say is, Rice Pudding. Delectable, but underrated I say, when I get it, on the grocery shelf, its always like 3 days from experation... cause no one buys it...
its GREAT stuff people!
Especially the Kozy Shack European Style Rice Pudding.

I LOVE rice pudding - it's so good. I'd never had it before I started dating my boyfriend and his mom made some homemade rice pudding once and I've loved it ever since. That and I also love tapioca.

I don't use a loaf pan for mine. I pour it out on a cookie sheet to cool. I used to be able to find it already prepared at the grocery store. They stopped making it, probably since no one bought it. The last time I bought it, I got food poisoning from it.
Now I make my own, but not that often. I just made some today and waiting for it to cool!!!

Roasted beets are right up there with sweet potatoes. Slice them after roasting and then put a thin slice of goat cheese between each slice to make a tasty stack

Kool-Aid pie. one of the best frozen pies ever. Takes about 5 hours prep time and 15 minutes to put together and then 5 hours sitting time before you can eat it. but oh so good
