No real surprises here.

Wyoming producing coal is the only one that surprised me. I always associated coal with the Appalachians, i.e. Pennsylvania. Also, I figured Wyoming's population is small enough that the industry wouldn't be too mature there

You should see the coal trains out in Wyoming, rolling along under those wide open skies. Also Bloomberg's "From The Ashes" documentary about coal talks about Wyoming coal.

Coal mining, and pretty much all mining in developed economies, doesn't really need massive labor forces anymore with modern technology.

Ditto. The term "coal country" refers to PA, WV, KY, etc. Wyoming is about the last place I would've thought of as a coal producer. Probably more a function of the Appalachians being TOO mature, I'd guess. All the easy-to-get coal was mined there long ago, I suppose.

Yeah. Last I heard they dug out all the tops of the Appalachian mountains. It's gone.

If its any consolation, West Virginia is still the 2nd biggest coal producing state but Wyoming still produces 3 times as much as WV does

Actually, there are some surprises for us that don't live or frequent in the USA. For instance, I never knew Wisconsin is a cheese producing giant.

No... nobody outside North America thinks of Wisconsin as the center of the cheese world.

It is probably referred to as such in US media all the time, but we don't get that info in our media. Actually I did get Wisconsin, but it was an educated guess rather than ingrained knowledge.

With the only difference that nobody outside of the US thinks of the US, much less of Wisconsin, when talking about cheese.

The North Antelope Rochelle coal mine in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming, US, is currently the world's largest coal mine by reserve. In 2013, there were 17 active coal mines in Wyoming, which produced 388 million short tons, 39 percent of all the coal mined in the US, and more than three times the production of second-place West Virginia.

Almost missed the tabasco sauce answer. Would have felt really dumb if I had. For a hint, concentrate on tabasco.

Considering that "Tabasco" is a name brand that is bottled in only one state, that was pretty easy.

District of Columbia was not tops for coinage? Seems odd to me - but maybe the US Mint in DC is just doing a good job marketing itself!

It may be that DC was ignored as it is currently not a state.

It may also be that there isn't a coin-producing mint in DC.
