eating anageographically

Weird things, given that I'm an American of German and Polish ancestry who grew up in the mid-Atlantic U.S.:

The first time I ate matzah ball soup was in Las Vegas. (2002, Backstage Deli at Luxor)

The first time I ate a pierogi was in Japan. (2005, Poland pavilion at the World's Fair in Aichi Prefecture)

Both were quite good.
