I always do one in Sioux City (like once a year or 2). Pro Tip. Don't do the Twin Bing Martini's in downtown. It curdles fast in 5 seconds.
MUSCO lighting has been a real innovative company.
Dobson Pipe Organ Builders in Lake City Iowa. They make custom pipe organs for ALL over the world. Fire destoryed the plant in 2022 but they are rebuilding the factory on the same location. Amazing people.
Where you were born is irrelevant. You need to ask for details on where your parents did the deed.
I think the "coolest" thing in there (like wow factor) is the Percival controlled room. That's some real sci-fi stuff.
The Winnebago looks cool, and would love to have one, but its really just a Winny mod kit on a Mercedes Sprinter; is it really "made" in Iowa? Kinda...
The Sukup Safe-T-Home is a really neat idea too; anyone know how good it is in practice?
The Bin Buster beer can, with the fake corrugated steel label - kinda dumb but I love it.
Surprised nothing from Collins - they have some high end military GPS stuff that's pretty wild. Probably not actually made in Iowa anymore though, they've outsourced about everything.

I was pondering what’s the big deal with the noodles. Pretty sure lots of people make noodles everywhere. Maybe if they have something extra like Coke used to?
One company that isn't on there at all but is probably okay with it that makes some pretty sweet **** in the aerospace and defense space.
A company in Cherokee makes the best fire rings around:
