Pennsylvania: More Than Just Cheesesteaks (But We Got Those Too)

Ah, Pennsylvania. The Keystone State. Land of liberty bells, scrapple (don't google it, trust me), and ... what else? Well, buckle up because Pennsylvania's got a whole lot more going on than meets the eye (or the stomach, in the case of cheesesteaks). This state is a manufacturing powerhouse, churning out everything from childhood favorites to luxury goods.

From Fun to Fancy: A Pennsylvania Product Palooza

Sweet Tooth? We Got You Covered (Literally in Chocolate): Let's start with the classics. Pennsylvania is practically synonymous with Hershey's Chocolate (fun fact: Hershey's Kisses were invented in 1907!). But that's not all! Just Born candies (think PEZ, Mike and Ike) and Snyder's of Hanover pretzels hail from the Keystone State too. Basically, if you have a sweet tooth, Pennsylvania has the cure.

Need for Speed? We've Got the Wheels: Pennsylvania isn't all candy and snacks. Gearheads, rejoice! Harley-Davidson motorcycles are built right here in York. Feeling fancy? Wendell August Forge creates stunning handcrafted metalwork, from lighting to furniture.

The Artsy Fartsy Side of Pennsylvania: Calling all music lovers and aspiring Picassos! Martin Guitars, world-renowned for their rich sound, are crafted in Nazareth. Crayola crayons, those colorful sticks of our childhood, come from Pennsylvania too. So next time you create a masterpiece (or, ahem, scribble on the walls), you can thank the Keystone State.

Bonus Round: Because Pennsylvania is Awesome: We can't forget Utz potato chips (perfect for road trips!), Yuengling beer (America's oldest brewery!), and Zippo lighters (because sometimes you just gotta light the way... literally).
