Chicken wings are my favorite New York food. They come from chickens. Chickens are raised on farms. I like my wings HOT!
2nd Place - Ben Smolen, Oneida, NY
Tomatoes are grown in new York. I like to eat them raw. Tomatoes have Vitamins A and C. They are used for things like ketchup and spaghetti sauce. They have small hairs on their stems. They spread out as they grow and are red, smooth, round, and juicy. Tomatoes are great - tasting!
3rd Place - Esther Chen, Bayside, NY
My favorite NY food are apples. They are healthy. I love to have them for snack. It is my favorite kind of fruit.
Honorable Mention - Andrew Merry, Arkport, NY
My favorite New York State food is steak. Steak comes from a beef cow. It can be cooked many different ways. I really like steak!
Honorable Mention - Jacob Phillips, Oneida, NY
New York State grows a lot of foods like the plum. Plums come in many colors like blue, green, purple, black, red, and yellow. Plums are really juicy, especially when they're freshly picked. They grow on trees. Plums are my favorite fruit.
