It's not the best time of the year without a little sugar. The holiday season brings many delights to indulge in, from Santa-shaped chocolates to gingerbread-flavored delectables. But what sweet treat are Americans drooling over?
Career website Zippia set out to answer that question. After analyzing Google searches, they found each state's preferred Christmas dessert. So what do Floridians get a sweet tooth for?
Cheesecake! Findings show a good chunk of Americans want to eat this creamy dessert during the winter holidays. Eight other states also had cheesecake as their most-searched option. "That doesn’t even count Pennsylvania and Hawaii who busy eating gingerbread cheesecake and Oreo cheesecake," writer Kathy Morris said.
What about the Sunshine State's neighbors? Zippia says both Georgia and Alabama are snacking on a different kind of cake: red velvet. The Carolinas seem to be in love with fruitcake, researchers added. In fact, 20 states overall wanted some kind of cake in the study.
Zippia had some other interesting results from their study. "Move over California, Missouri searches for 'vegan christmas cookies' more than any other state... Only North Dakota is a big fan of vastly, underrated peanut butter blossoms," Morris wrote. You can check out Zippia's fun findings here.
