I'll start with a few easy ones:
- The Frankfurter (though not necessarily invented in Frankfurt)
- The Hamburger (it's Hamburg origins are also disputed, but so what...)
- The Sandwich, which we all know was named after the John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich.
- The Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich from Philadelphia
- Limburger cheese, Limburg, Belgium
How long until someone mentions French fries or Italian dressing? |

Brussel Sprouts
Cheddar Cheese
In fact, almost all cheese is named after where it is made.
Same with Champagne |
