Michigan has some great food, and now, we hold the title for having two cities with some of the best food in the U.S.

WalletHub.com recently conducted a survey of the best cities to get grub, or how they call it, the best "foodie" cities in America. To do the research, WalletHub "compared more than 180 U.S. cities across 29 key indicators of foodie-friendliness," according to the outlet. "Our data set ranges from cost of groceries to affordability and accessibility of high-quality restaurants to food festivals per capita."

The ranking put Portland, Oregon, at No. 1 on the list. I've never been there, but I've heard the food is very adventurous. Orlando and Miami, Florida; San Francisco, California; and Austin, Texas, round out the top five.

Michigan has one city in the top 20 on the list: Grand Rapids. Detroit also made the cut at No. 107. Find the full list here.
