What do bostonians eat

Chowder refers only to clam chowder, and in Boston there is no such thing as any kind of chowder other than clam that corn chowder stuff is for the west coast. A "hoodsie" is an ice cream cup made by the company Hood. It is a small cup with half chocolate, half vanilla and its signature wooden spoon. As a kid, these were the epic addition to any cake at a birthday party. The struggle to eat the ice cream with the wooden stick is its own form of Boston initiation.

A fluffernutter is the next level of school lunch sandwiches. This epic sandwich was the result of the combination of peanut butter and fluff. Now, if you are wondering what is fluff? Fluff is a marshmallow spread that is like a bucket of melted marshmallows. Every Massachusetts kid prayed that they would open their lunchbox to find that their mom made a fluffernutter for lunch.

Although this list is not fully exhausted, and it is highly likely that more will pop up the more time you spend in Boston, it is a good starting point for the basics in Bostonian speech. Lucky for lovers of banh mi and pho, Boston has quite a Vietnamese food scene, particularly in Dorchester.
