To put it simply: these are the side dishes that each area has Googled more often than folks residing elsewhere within the country.

The map, which neatly highlights the data, is split into five categories: casseroles, veggies, sweet potatoes, stuffing/dressing and other.
A lot of the results are pretty standard—think mashed potatoes and green beans, for example—but others are downright odd. Folks in Iowa, for example, are looking up fruit salad recipes. In Rhode Island, deviled eggs seem to be pretty popular while DC residents have been searching for duck confit. Other odd entries include broccoli casserole (Kentucky), rice (Virginia) and cranberry relish (Ohio).
