Chicago is the heart of fast food culture. The first McDonalds was opened here in the 50s and spread quickly to the rest of the country and eventually the world. Wherever you are in this city you are never far from a fast food joint, what is hard is to find something that will not make you feel 10 pounds heavier than when you walked in. Italian foods are very popular, if very Americanized. An Italian hot dog, for example, is a heap of shredded beef in a hot dog bun served with any and every topping you can imagine. Deep Dish Pizza is another Chicagoan phenomena definitely worth a try. Be patient though, a good deep dish takes some time to prepare.
