Baltimoreans are unique, especially when it comes to our food. Seafood is an important part of our culture and you’ll find it on nearly everything, and there are other unique food combinations that anyone outside of Charm City just won’t understand. Check out the following list and see how many of these kooky combos you’ve eaten.
- Sauerkraut with Thanksgiving dinner

- Old Bay on everything
Flickr / Jonathan Smith We LOVE Old Bay. You know what? Love may not be a strong enough word. You’ll find this iconic seasoning on everything, from corn, to fries, and more.
- Seafood Bloody Mary

- Marshmallow on Sno-balls
Flickr / Like_the_Grand_Canyon Ah, sno-balls. The summer treat that’s only made better with a heaping pile of marshmallow. Don’t knock it ’til you try it.
- Crab on everything
Facebook / Jimmy’s Famous Seafood We like crab on fries, in our omelets, on top of pasta, etc. We just can’t get enough.
- Coddie

- Crab Chips
Flickr / Like_the_Grand_Canyon It’s fun watching my out-of-state friends gag while I eat crab chips. If you’re not from here, you just don’t understand.
- Crab Mac and Cheese Dog
Flickr / Like_the_Grand_Canyon We couldn’t leave out this iconic Camden Yards dish. It’s messy but worth the effort.
- This stomach-turning flavor combination
Flickr / Gavin St. Ours Are you a fan of Dead Rise beer? This Old Bay flavor isnt’ for me, but there are plenty of locals who think this is the perfect summertime brew.
