The Baked Bean State or the Bay State, Old Colony State or Pilgrim State
Bay state is the nickname of Massachusetts.
The Bay State : because it is on a bay, and among several bays. The Old Colony State : for the Plymouth Colony settlements ( 1620-1628) as being the "old" colony as compared to newer ones The Pilgrim State : for the first group to settle there The Puritan State : for the Puritans who were important in establishing the Massachusets Bay Colony. The Baked Bean State, or Beantown for Boston : refers to some of the rules Puritans had about working on Sunday. Cooking was viewed as work< so on Saturday they would prepare baked bean dishes and brown bread to be eaten on Sunday. Baked bean recipes are something of an art form in Massachusetts, Boston in particular.
