What Makes Texas So Special?

When it comes to the United States, there are few places that can compare to the Lone Star State of Texas. From its unique culture to its delicious cuisine, Texas has something for everyone. But what makes Texas so special? The music of Texas is one of the most iconic aspects of the state. From country to southern rock, Texas has a sound all its own.

There are even websites dedicated to the genre, and it's not uncommon to hear a Texas band on the radio. Texas is also home to some of the best food in the country. Chili is the official dish of the state, and Texans take it very seriously. There are even festivals dedicated to chili cooking, such as Chilifest at Snook and the annual chili cooking at Terlingua.

Texans also have their own style of dress. While jeans are not a requirement, it's best not to wear cowboy boots if you don't have a pair of real ones. And if you're offered a pair from your Rhode Island cousin, it's best to politely decline. Buc-ee is another iconic Texan symbol.

This beaver is the mascot of a chain of convenience stores that sell all sorts of Texas-focused products, such as kolaches, barbecue, jerky, koozies, hot sauce and t-shirts with beavers. The annual Texas State Fair is another event that celebrates all things Texan. From local food to entertainment, this massive event highlights everything that makes Texas so special. Finally, if you live in Texas and don't eat Tex-Mex food at least three times a week, then you're not a true Texan! So if you move here from another state with your family, know that you'll be indoctrinated with Texan pride.
