From cheese festivals to taco trucks and top-notch gourmet dining, Atlanta's eats scene is undoubtedly one of the tastiest.

And according to personal finance site WalletHub's "2017 Best Foodie Cities in America" list, the metro ranks among some of the best cities in the country.

To come up with the results, analysts examined the 150 most populated U.S. cities (plus at least two of the most populated cities in each state for a total of 182 cities) and compared them across two key dimensions: affordability and diversity/accessibility/quality.
