What would Illinois dish up?


Louisiana’s U.S. Sen. David Vitter Tuesday made a friendly wager with U.S. Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) on this weekend’s National Football League NFC Championship Game.

“The Saints will march through Chicago and make it a black and gold Super Bowl,” Vitter said.

The loser of the wager has to make congratulatory remarks on the floor of the U.S. Senate and serve the winner's staff a sampling of home cuisine.

Vitter would have plenty of offerings – gumbo, jambalaya, beignets. But what’s Illinois known for?

Oh, yeah. I forgot.

We won’t have to worry about that.
