I'm from Louisiana, but my family moved to England last year because of my Dad's job. You might say that there was a small adjustment period!

Am I the only one in this thread from Utah? Wow. I feel lonesome.

A few things about Utah...
- Not everybody from Utah is Mormon. Yes, I'm Mormon, but there are actually quite a few people from other faiths. I would say that there are probably about 40% Mormons (that's still a lot, but not 100%, like most people think).
- Utah is a desert. We do get rain and snow, but a lot of our water supply comes from snow-melt in the mountains.
- Yes, we do eat a lot of Jello. No, not very many people eat green Jello. That was a fad that came and went.
- 2002 Olympics!
- Utah consumes more ice cream than any other state (last I heard). We even eat it in the winter.
- Compared to us, California drivers are mild. I've heard a lot of people say that Utah has the worst drivers they've ever seen.
- We're home to the largest open-pit copper mine in the world, Bingham Copper Mine, which can be seen from outer space.
- The Great Salt Lake is not as salty as it used to be. I hear it's a lot harder to float than it used to be.
- Believe it or not, boating is actually a popular summertime activity. How do we accomplish this in a land-locked state? We have a good number of reservoirs and lakes that are popular boating areas.
- Fry sauce (ketchup mixed with mayonnaise) is so popular you can even get it with your fries at McDonald's (and Arctic Circle, and just about any Fast Food place).

Im from the Philippines...seems like nobody else is...
