Oddly enough, I have a small counter-culture in the Tir of Southern cooking.
Back when the first generation of ELves hit majority age (18-21), fir Tir na Nog, then Tir Tangire, gave clarion calls for "Homecoming" ... na Nog got a bunch of wealthy American Elves to fly over, largely from the northeast (New York, Boston, etc) to see what was up. Proto-Tir Tangire gave a more open "Any Metahuman" call and, more importantly, was in North America ... lots of impoverished folks who couldn't afford to fly to Ireland could drive, or even hitchhike, to the west coast. Quite a few were stopped at the Soiux border of course, but internal pressure from proto-Tir got the ELves through, along with a smattering of other metas. A big chunk of the Orks and Trolls were from the South, where racism was blatant and thought of the Tir as a sort of Promised Land, wher ethey could be free from all the hate.
Sadly for them, that part didn't work out so well.
Still, they brought their food with them and, while the Southern Elves largely conformed and joined greater 'Elven Society', the tusker underclass has a distinct Southern subculture. What little meat is locally grown pretty much comes from rural farms that are run by tuskers, and as they were a driving force in the early days of the uprising, a few staples got pegged as 'Freedom Food' ... most notably biscuits (Cheap, filling, easy to make and able to pass around in protest areas/stick in a coat pocket for later.)
