Raising Cane's sweet tea doesn't get enough credit. It's dangerously good.

Hill Country in the spring is unbeatable. Fredericksburg for wineries, Enchanted Rock for hiking, and the wildflowers on the roadside are insane in April.

Big Bend is 100% worth it but you need at least 3-4 days. The drive is brutal but once you're there it feels like another planet. Camp at the Chisos Basin if you can get a spot.

Following this thread. Want to hear more takes.

The family-owned Chinese spot near me has been open since the 80s. Same family. Same recipes. Still the best egg drop soup I've ever had.

Paper plates = no insurance and possibly no registration. And they drive like it because they know they can't be traced. Biggest problem on Texas roads right now.

The fries are terrible I'll give you that. Everything else you said is wrong but the fries are indefensible.

Bacon egg and cheese on flour with green salsa. That's the order. Every time. Don't overthink it.

Any southern home cooking restaurant. The ones with the big plastic pitchers on the table. That's where the real sweet tea lives.

The no turn signal thing drives me INSANE. It's a lever. Right there. On the steering column. Takes zero effort.

You are objectively wrong and I feel sorry for your taste buds. The honey BBQ chicken strip sandwich at 1am is a top 5 fast food item ever made.

The brisket sandwich is legitimately good for what it is. Is it better than a dedicated BBQ joint? No. Is it the best food you can get without leaving a gas station parking lot? Absolutely.

The friendliness is real. People wave at strangers, hold doors, and make small talk in checkout lines. Moved from the northeast and this took months to get used to.

The fudge and the jerky are genuinely high quality. Everything else is overpriced gas station food with cute packaging. Fight me.

I moved here from California and I think Whataburger is great but the cult following is disproportionate to the food. It's an A- burger with an S tier fanbase.

Marfa is one of the weirdest towns in America in the best way. Art installations in the middle of nowhere, the Marfa lights, Prada Marfa. Combine it with Big Bend for a full trip.

Did the Texas BBQ trail — hit 5 different BBQ spots across the state in 3 days. Gained 8 pounds. No regrets.

The 2019 bond program is delivering visible results. The road projects and park improvements are real and happening. I voted for it and I'm glad I did.

Wait until someone waves you through a 4-way stop when they got there first. Texas politeness actually slows down traffic lol

High school football being a religion. I thought people were exaggerating. Then I saw a high school stadium bigger than most college stadiums. These people are not playing.

McDonald's sweet tea for $1 is the best value in fast food beverages and I will die on this hill. They put an absurd amount of sugar in it.

Birria tacos here have gotten so much better in the last few years. The trend actually brought legit birria spots out of hiding.

I was in my house on Miller Rd when it hit. We had about 90 seconds from the warning to impact. Got my family in the closet under the stairs. The tornado took the second floor of our house. We were directly in the path. I still get anxious when the sirens go off.
