Standing rib roasts were a regular fixture of our table, along with pork roasts, makkara (a type of Finnish sausage, rather bland, like bologna), chicken rolled in crushed potato chips, casseroles (the infamous Midwest "hot dish"), pork chops simmering in Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup, and Cornish pasties, brought to the area by miners imported from the played-out tin mines of Cornwall.

Warm Cornish pasties, filled with rutabaga and purportedly so robust that they could be dropped down a mineshaft and not break, Finnish midwinter saunas (and makkara, a ring bologna meant to be cooked over sauna coals) and the cudighi form a triad of Yooper classics.
