Growing up in Salt Lake City, where in the 1970’s & 80’s the only authentic ethnic cuisine widely available was Mexican, (and without question, to my tastes, Salt Lake has some of the best Mexican food I have ever eaten, right alongside places like Southern California, Texas or even Mexico itself) and having lived here in Eastern Europe for going on the past 4 years, you have no idea how incredible a big bowl of warm, crisp tortilla chips and some honest-to-God, spicy, flavorful garden fresh salsa/pico de gallo tastes after going without for a while.
I swear, it seems like the entire continent of Europe is unaware of what good, simple, authentic Mexican food actually is, even in huge international cities that are world centers of gastronomy.
I’ll go with the above, and add corned beef and cabbage.

Oh, got one that hasn’t been mentioned that is a must on my Mt. Rushmore:
Shrimp and grits
Yes, but just-tahini has a very different taste and texture than tahini-that-has-been-made-into-hummus.
Chicken fried steak and gravy (white or brown)
Meatloaf and mashed potatoes
Sushi and miso soup
Corn chips and cheese dip
In case anyone thinks this is another ketchup-on-banana thing, it isn’t. It is a popular combo in New Orleans. I had never heard of it until a visit this past summer, but it is pretty widespread down there, and it is also mighty fine eatin’.
Chicken and waffles
Shrimp & Grits are extremely common all along the Gulf Coast and also up and down the Southeastern seaboard.
It is perhaps THE signature dish of costal South Carolina, available in fancy 5 Star fine dining restaurants and tarpaper beachfront seafood shacks alike.
Pairs well with cheap, cold beer, aa well as really cheap, cold beer…
peanut butter and bananas
lox and cream cheese on bagel
corn beef on rye bread

For whatever reason, this post reminded me. Also on my personal Mt. Rushmore:
chicken paprikash & galuska/nokedli/spaetzle. One of my go-to fall and winter dishes.
I guess you don’t know much about Mt. Rushmore.
