As a former Minnesotan I can say that we do eat a lot of the stuff, but not so much as a dessert as a salad. Big a church socials and such. Take some orange Jell-O, mix it up and just before it begins to coagulate, take a couple of raw carrots, peel off slices with a veggie peeler and stir 'em into the Jell-0. Some people use lime Jell-O, for the color contrast I guess.
One of the more popular desserts up there, at least among the Norskies, is "Kremkake" (KRUMM-Kaaka). Cream cake. Often decorated with colorful berries and other fruit. Beats the heck out of most of the other desserts on this list.
