## Resource

When America’s most iconic invention is asked, it’s not just freedom—it’s the light bulb and the internet, proving we’re wired for innovation. From cars to airplanes, tech reigns supreme, though movies and TV get a nod too. And when it comes to food? The hamburger’s crowned king, beating apple pie and hot dogs—though older folks still lean toward pie. Based on a nationwide survey ahead of America’s 250th anniversary, this snapshot reveals how deeply we tie our identity to invention, culture, and that juicy, iconic burger.
