There are many places in American history that people recognize instantly. They're places you see in textbooks or learn about on field trips.
But sometimes the most important places in history aren't giant landmarks. Sometimes, they're just a lunch counter.

Woolworth's Lunch Counter was (and in California still is) an iconic lunch spot for many people. Who wouldn't love a banana split for only 39 cents?
