Not food, but
I would suggest stopping by the Corvette museum on Bowling Green and almost any of the craft distilleries in Kentucky and Tennessee.
Didn't the Corvette museum have a major sinkhole, some time ago, that swallowed up a few cars?
Maybe someone spent too much time visiting the craft distilleries and left the sprinkler system running over a holiday weekend.
If the suggestions work into the routing I'll do my best to get to all. Thanks and keep them coming. From Phoenix maybe a trip up to see the Grand Canyon snow covered. I saw the Copper Canyon in Mexico at that time of year a while back and it was pretty spectacular looking
