Connecticut is called the Nutmeg State after a spice. Connecticut Yankees, as people in this northeast state are called, are known to be smart in business. So smart that it was said they could sell wooden, meaning false, nutmegs to strangers.康涅狄格州因为一种香料被称为"肉豆蔻州" (Nutmeg State).身处美国东北部的康涅狄格人被称为Connecticut Yankees,因其在生意方面很精明而广为人知,甚至可以将木制的有问题的肉豆寇出售给陌生人.
