If North Dakota Had A Scented Candle, What Would It Smell Like?

I kind of forgot about writing this story.  I actually asked this question on-air and on our station, Facebook pages a while back.  "If North Dakota had a scented candle, what would it smell like?"  Hmmm, as usual, our listeners and readers had some comical answers.  I took the time to tally the votes and here are the Top 10 answers!

#10 Fireworks Smoke!

Let's face it, we love our Fireworks in North Dakota and especially in Bismarck, Mandan and Lincoln.  The 4th of July should really be a week-long celebration.  Wait a minute, it basically is.

#9 Fresh Cut Hay

If you have allergies, this probably wouldn't be for you.  Me, I LOVE it!  I would so buy this candle.  Fall is my favorite season and I absolutely love this smell.

#8 Rain/Snow

I really hope we can get out of this dry period because I do love the smell after a good thunderstorm.  We had so few thunderstorms the last couple of years and I really miss it when nature gets violent.  Let's hope we get to smell that a lot this summer.

#7 Kneffla Soup

I've never tried it before, so I can't really say I get this one.  I was raised in the eastern part of the state and it's not really a thing.  I guess I'll have to run down to Kroll's Diner one of these days and give it a whirl!

#6 Alfalfa Field

Another one I've always loved being an outdoorsman!  Count me in on this candle.

#5 Cattle

Who doesn't want a cow manure candle?  Just about every day when I go to work, I catch a whiff of this thanks to KIST.  LOL!

#4 Lilacs 

I'm probably alone on this one, but I've never been a fan of the lilac smell.  I hate the bushes too, as they're a pain to keep up.

#3 Mosquito Spray

Nothing like the aroma of Deep Woods Off.  Mosquitos haven't been much of an issue with our dry weather of late.  Hopefully, that will change.  I would trade the "buzz" for some moisture.

#2 Ranch Dressing

Had to giggle on this one.  Seems like everybody in North Dakota LOVES ranch dressing on just about everything.  Just don't mix it with ketchup.  That's GROSS!

#1 Busch Light/Busch Light Farts

I had to bust a gut on this one.  No doubt, North Dakota's favorite beer is Busch Light.  Especially in Bismarck Mandan.  It's almost like a religion.  And, with drinking beer comes gas, thus the Busch Light farts.  I'll pass on this candle!
