♪♪ >> SHELETTA: RIGHT NOW THE LEGISLATURE IN THE STATE OF NEW MEXICO IS DEBATING ON WHAT THE STATE AROMA WILL BE.

AND IT LOOKS LIKE THEY'’VE DECIDED ON THE SMELL OF ROASTING CHILI PEPPERS.

IN MINNESOTA, WE HAVE A STATE MUFFIN - THE BLUEBERRY.

A STATE FUNGUS - THE MORELL MUSHROOM.

AND A STATE FRUIT - THE HONEYCRISP APPLE.

BUT NO AROMA???

I'’M GLAD TO STICK MY NOSE IN STATE BUSINESS WITH SOME SCENT-SATIONAL NOMINEES FOR AN OFFICIAL MINNESOTA STATE SMELL.

SO MANY POSSIBILITIES WITH A WINTER THEME, AM I RIGHT?

WET WOOLEN MITTENS, THE HOT RUBBER AROMA OF STUCK TIRES SPINNING IN THE SNOW OR ZAMBONI FUMES.

FOODWISE, WE COULD GO WITH BUTTERED SWEETCORN, OF COURSE JUICY LUCIES, TATER TOT HOT DISH OR SPAM.

OUTDOORS, WE HAVE NORTHWOODS PINE, SPRING LILACS OR PRAIRIE AIR.

THEN THERE'’S FISH.

WALLEYE IS FISHY.

BAIT SHOPS ARE FISHIER.

LUTEFISK IS FISHIEST.

AFTER THIS VIKINGS SEASON, NO CHANCE WE CAN GO WITH THE SWEET SMELL OF VICTORY.

LORD HAVE MERCY.

WE COULD GO WITH THE SMELL OF CATHY WURZER.

YOU CAN'’T TELL BY WATCHING HER ON TV, BUT SHE ALWAYS SMELLS GOOD.

BUT THE PICK FOR MY NOSE IS A COMBO PLATTER.

I'’M THINKING THE SMELL OF ANYTHING FRIED ON A STICK AND A DASH OF MANURE.

YOU BETCHA, THE STATE AROMA HAS GOT TO BE THE SWEET
