Lovefood did an article all about comfort food "Whether it's perfectly cooked steaks and big, juicy burgers or a piled-high plate of chicken and waffles, America does food like nowhere else, and it's usually wonderfully comforting and cozy. From restaurants serving bowls of flavorsome shrimp and grits and oozy mac 'n' cheese to diners and fast-casual spots that make a mean meatloaf, we've found the best place for all-American classics in every state."
