Some foods have a way of bringing people right back to childhood.
A new survey found that New Jersey residents' most nostalgic summer food is saltwater taffy, a longtime Jersey Shore boardwalk favorite.
The survey ranked pork roll, also known as Taylor Ham, in second place.
Coming in third was the classic Jersey tomato sandwich.
All three foods are closely tied to New Jersey traditions and summertime memories across the Garden State.
