Forgive me for posting something non-political, but I'm pretty proud that my hometown invented the closest thing to healthy on McDonald's heart-attack menu, the Filet-o-Fish. It is aka "Fish Mac" in E. Europe. There is an uneaten one in my fridge right now, awaiting its date with destiny.
And you thought all Kentucky invented was great fried chicken! It is a veritable Bell Labs of fast-food innovation.
UPDATE: Somebody pointed out that the filet-o-fish is actually not very healthy. Well he can go suck an egg white!

Today was the first "fish-fry" Friday of the Lenten season. Many people give up eating red meat on Fridays and instead eat only fish or no meat at all.
Lent is a 40 day span of reflection and sacrifice for Christians around the world as we move toward Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
One of the most popular places to find fish sandwiches during Lent is McDonald's. Did you know that a piece of pop-culture history was invented right here in Cincinnati?
