Kansas: Heartland History and Odd Laws

You might think Kansas is just flat cornfields, but this state was actually the violent

battleground that sparked the Civil War. They called it Bleeding Kansas for a reason.

Sitting smack in the geographic center of the US, it is literally the Heart of America.

Beyond the intense history, it is an absolute powerhouse for wheat and aviation,

plus it is home to the stunning Tallgrass Prairie Preserve where bison still roam free.

But watch your back during dessert, because in some Kansas towns, it is technically

illegal to serve a scoop of ice cream on top of a cherry pie.
