u/Cjyogj asked:

Another Oddly Big State

Overall I think New York probably smells like apples, but my end of the state smells like chicken wings.

Green chilies and failure

Edit: only because I saw some bullshit about Colorado and California Chile you can kick rocks with that nonsense. Hatch valley green Chile is the only chile that matters.

The Very Air Holds Us

Wisconsin: land of brat burps and beer farts. Come smell our dairy airs.

Minnesota: Icicles on your nose hairs.

Trees

Cedar, petrichor, and weed.

(Technically I live inCanada, but I'm pretty sure this all applies to Washington state too)
