Perhaps it's the state's thousands of lakes, or spectacular fall foliage, or bustling cities that attract so many visitors to Minnesota. Whatever the reason, the tourism industry in the North Star State shows no signs of slowing down, and currently brings in $9.2 billion annually and generates an additional $1 billion in tax revenue.

All those visitors mean great things for the food service industry, where chefs can expect an increase in job openings of over 15% through 2012. Minnesota proudly boasts its own official state grain - wild rice - as well as its own official state muffin - blueberry. Austin, Minnesota, is home to the Spam Museum, located near the Hormel Foods headquarters.
