However, what I like about Michigan is our diverse culture due to Detroit being a major immigration port back in the day. As such, I'd say that you can get a little but of the "best this or that" in Michigan. Not to mention, our "Detroit style" pizza.

Also, almost ever city you go to has their own local doughnut shop, they're definitely worth the try and some have a lot of variety of flavor profiles.

    The sandwich you're thinking of is a "French Dip". Similar roll to a Philly Cheesesteak with sliced beef and cheese. Typically, you either get a cup of beef broth/gravy to dip it in as you eat it, or the top bun can be dipped in the gravy beforehand. Not sure where it originated, but you can find them semi regularly across the US.

    Here's what you do.
    Go to the hardware store and buy four 12"x12" unglazed terracotta floor tiles.
    Put those tiles on the grill of your oven.
    Preheat the oven.
    Put the pizza on those hot tiles and bon appetit!

    Just a quick note about the "13 fudge shops" thing. That's all on one island that's roughly 10 sq km in area. The island is known for it's fudge, as well as being almost completely free of cars save for emergency vehicles. It's a popular vacation destination in the state.
    As for what other foods we like, here are a few other favorites from across the state:
    Detroit Style Pizza: A deep dish pizza with dough similar to focaccia, baked in a square pan with cheese intentionally burnt onto the crust.
    Coney Island Hot Dog: A Hot dog topped with Chili, mustard. and onions. Most popular on the east side of the state.
    Beer: Grand Rapids, Michigan's second largest city, is known as one of, if not the best, beer cities in America. The West side of the state isn't very interesting, but at least you can get drunk.
    Cherries: Traverse City in the upper Northwest of the lower Peninsula holds the Cherry Festival every year. The area is the largest producer of tart cherries in the country. There's even a chain of stores in the area called the Cherry Republic where you can buy Cherry flavored foods like Pie. Cookies, James, and even Peanut Butter, Coffee, and Root Beer.
    Pasties: The Upper Peninsula is known for eating Pasties. Pretty much the same stuff you'd find in England as far as I understand, though I've never had either to compare.

It’s named after Passyunk Avenue in South Philly and is run by someone originally from the Philly area, so they try to get the ingredients as close as possible. Mozzarella sticks are pretty good as well. I don’t know the exact address but I believe it’s located on Cleveland Street.

Giordano's is my favorite, followed by Lou Malnati's (amazing crust). We also have great regular, and thin crust, and unlike NY we don't have floppy, undercooked, foldable dough, we cook our thin crust cracker crisp, and it's excellent. We also have a lot of great gyro places. My favorite beef sandwich is actually a combo sandwich, with roast beef AND Italian sausage, don't forget the red sauce, peppers and cheese.
