Whether you were born in Maryland or have lived here for several years, you know there are just some things that we're willing to argue over, like the best way to steam crabs, the best sno-ball toppings, and more. Read on for 10 hills everyone living in Maryland is willing to die on. Let us know if you agree with the following facts about life in Maryland and what else you'd add to this fun list!

1. Steamed crabs boiled crabs. Period.

In Maryland, we steam our crabs. Period. If you've ever visited a southern state, you've probably discovered that blue crabs there are usually boiled. Blasphemy!

2. Speaking of crab, never order a crab cake out of state.

The menu may even say something like "Maryland-style crab cakes," but usually they're not broiled AND they have peppers in them. Bleh, no thanks.

3. Old Bay is an essential condiment.

Old Bay belongs on the table just like salt and pepper.

4. And Old Bay can be sprinkled on nearly anything.

Have you tried Old Bay on corn, fries, or even potato salad? The essential seasoning pairs well with many unexpected foods.

5. Sometimes aggressive driving is necessary if you want to get anywhere.

I don't mean cutting people off and being downright rude. I mean not being passive, and instead, having the confidence to switch lanes when you need. On certain local interstates, it's necessary to stand your ground.

6. Snoballs are the best summer treats.

7. This is Natty Boh.

Sure, the full name is National Bohemian, but we Marylanders know it as Natty Boh. Always.

8. The National Anthem isn't complete without shouting "O!"

Have you ever sang the national anthem at an event out-of-state? It just feels so empty without the emphasized "O!"

9. Vinegar belongs on fries.

Ah, boardwalk fries. This delicious bucket is a meal on its own, and it's best topped with vinegar -- not ketchup. But feel free to add some Old Bay, too!

10. The Maryland flag is the BEST flag.

Just try telling a Marylander their flag isn't the best. I double-dog dare you.
