While San Bernardino might be a great place to go if you're hungry for some lovin', apparently it's not the best choice if your tummy is grumbling for food. The Inland Empire city, which also houses the McDonald's Museum, was named the worst food city in America.
The rankings were done by Movoto Real Estate Agencyand were based on criteria including food trucks, restaurants, bakeries, candy shops, food and wine fests, caterers, and gourmet grocers per capita.
San Bernardino beat out other cities who made the rankings like , though we're not so sure this is an honor. It was, however, the only CA city mentioned. Texas has four cities in the top ten, including El Paso, Garland, Laredo, and Fort Worth.
So while L.A. keeps on gaining cred as a dining destination on the national level, some of our neighbors have some serious work to do.
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
