12 Things You May Not Know Are ‘Made in Oklahoma’
I believe many people in the United States don't understand Oklahoma. They understand the cowboy history, the oil and our Native American legacy but they don't understand that Oklahoma is much, much more than that. On a recent trip to Washington D.C., I was asked if I owned a horse, if I had a ranch, if I had oil on my land. So, even if I cannot educate the masses on our state, I can at least make sure we home-grown folks know some of the great things that come out of our state.
Here are just some great companies that you might not know are based in Oklahoma. How many are surprising to you?

nonnis.com nonnis.com1Nonni's Biscotti
If you've never had biscotti in coffee, you're missing out. Their THINaddictives crackers are also delicious and I love the nut flavors.

griffins.com griffins.com2Griffin Food Company
Griffin Food Company makes the ABSOLUTE BEST WAFFLE SYRUP ON THE ENTIRE PLANET AND THERE WILL BE NO DEBATE ABOUT THIS. In fact, I have been known to ship Griffin's to my in-laws when we have long stays in PA. That state has a thing for maple syrup which is nasty compared to Griffin's.

quibids.com quibids.com3QuiBids
QuiBids is not a thing but a service. 95% of its' technology was developed in Oklahoma. You might have seen their national commercials lately about bidding for things you want online.

bar-s.com bar-s.com4BarS Hot Dogs and Bologna
All over the country and it's delicious and made right here in Lawton, Oklahoma! In fact, a great way to test someone about their hemispherical roots is to ask them to say the word. If they say "baloney" they are probably from the south and will love some Bar-S fried up with eggs on a bun. Now THAT's breakfast!

fieldspies.com fieldspies.com5Field's Pies
Field's Pies makes those tiny little pecan pie tarts that you should eat just one of but you will probably down more than that. They are based in Pauls Valley and, if you've never been to the original Field's restaurant, it's worth the trip.

braums.com braums.com
jcpotter.com jcpotter.com7J.C. Potter Sausage Company
J.C. Potter sausage company makes a lot of the sausage you will ever eat.

alamo.com alamo.com8Alamo Rent-a-Car
Alamo is based in Oklahoma and we've been arriving at our destination safely ever since.

10Hobby Lobby
Hobby Lobby's Oklahoma roots are now familiar to everyone, but did you know they were based in Oklahoma before they went to the supreme court?

sonic.com sonic.com11Sonic Drive In
