Eater’s new cookbook 'Eaterland: Recipes and Stories From Across the United States' drops on April 28, boldly attempting to teleport dishes like Texas’s Frito pie and Pittsburgh’s mysterious French fry-topped salad into your sad little kitchen. Edited by cookbook bigwig Sarah Zorn and overseen by Eater’s queen duo, Missy Frederick and Stephanie Wu, it promises globe-trotting bites without the TSA lines. Eaterland boasts hometown tales from local heroes like New York’s Kwame Onwuachi and Texas legend Dean Fearing, plus essays digging into Indigenous roots and spicy immigrant mashups. The book weighs in with photos from Matt Taylor-Gross and stylistic wonders, presumably so you won’t realize you’ll probably mess these up.

They say you can’t have a real Pittsburgh salad without fries on top, but you also can’t have one without feeling just a bit like a tourist in your own kitchen.
Eaterland: Because what’s America without an entire book dedicated to convincing you that you *totally* know street food from somewhere you’ve never been?
