Here Are 15 Things That Everyone In Missouri Absolutely Loves

Living in Missouri evokes a certain kind of pride - after all, we have some of the best food, drinks, teams, and art in the country. Even if you don’t absolutely love the 15 best things about Missouri, you’ll have to admit that you’re proud of them.

1. Deep-Fried Ravioli

We prefer the term, "toasted," but we all know it’s really breaded then deep-fried. Regular ravioli pales in comparison.

2. Gateway Arch

Though we do get a little tired of dragging visiting relatives to it every summer, it’s the pride of Missouri. And the view from the top just never gets old. Such is Missouri life.

3. Baseball

Missouri doesn’t have one major league team...we have two! The Cardinals always make us proud, and the KC Royals won the World Series in 2015.

4. Budweiser

It was born here, thanks to Adolphus Busch. Even if you don’t like beer, you love Budweiser.

5. Missouri’s Ever-Changing Weather

Sixty-five degrees and sunny one minute on the golf course...a major storm brewing the next. You may as well love it, because it’s the reality of life in Missouri.

6. Provel Cheese

Because you know pizza made with anything else is just inferior.

7. Barbeque

Missouri does it best.

8. Flying Dinner Rolls

Lambert’s Cafe is famous for its delicious rolls...and its delivery method. They really do throw ‘em at you!

9. Float Trips

One of the best things to do during a Missouri summer.

10. Mark Twain

When the world’s best writer is from your home state, you can’t help but love him.

11. Cornhole

When you’re playing in the backyard, do you stir up a rousing game of croquet? No! You drag out the cornhole!

12. Mizzou

Even if we didn’t attend, we love our University of Missouri.

13. Gooey Butter Cake

It was accidentally invented in St. Louis. Now we can’t imagine dessert without it.

14. Giant Shuttlecocks

These amazing outdoor sculptures at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City are instantly recognizable as Missouri icons.

15. Playing on Missouri’s Lakes

California has nothing on us. We have 200 more miles of shoreline than the coastal state! Our lakes are incredible recreation spots.
