A whoopie pie is like a cake sandwich：two small round chocolate cakes stuck together by a layer of soft vegetable frosting(糖霜)．Many states have different official symbols，like state birds，state flowers，or even state fruits or vegetables.The official state vegetable of Texas is the sweet onion.In California, the states official marine fish is the colorful garibaldi. To make a new symbol② official，state lawmakers have to pass a law.A law starts as a bill，or a proposed③ law.Then lawmakers vote for or against the bill.In Maine，if a majority vote in favor of a bill in both the State Senate and State House of Representatives，the bill becomes law. But first，lawmakers have to prove that a symbol belongs to their state.Congressman Paul Davis decided to write the whoopie bill after talking to enthusiastic foodlovers at last years Maine Whoopie Pie Festival.He thought making it Maines official treat would make his state proud.More than 4,000 Maine residents came out to eat whoopie pies that day.The state even celebrates Whoopie Pie Day each June. One bakery in Maine claims the pie has been baked in their ovens since 1925.But no one knows for sure which state made the treat first.Last month, protesters④ in Lancaster，Pennsylvania，gathered against Maines bill.“Generations and generations have been making and eating whoopie pies here in Lancaster，”
