"My trip to the Caribbean was great, but do not eat their terrible food." -- No one.

My inlaws from Illinois, probably.

Nah, the Midwesterner says, "their food isn't for me, but I hear those New York types like it."

I tease my brothers about this all the time. They moved to the Midwest a couple decades ago and their tolerance for spiciness has gone way down. We also get into frequent disagreements about whether The Outback is a good steak house, Red Lobster serves good seafood, or Olive Garden is high quality authentic Italian. We also disagree about the existence of restaurants that are not national chains
