If the Midwest is America's breadbasket, it might mostly be because of Kansas, who's Sumner County is known as The Wheat Capital of the World.

Not something you can eat, but certainly more desired - American currency in the form of Kansas unclaimed money.
Over 20 million dollars in Kansas unclaimed property is taken in by the state each year. These monies are from abandoned financial assets turned over by insurance companies, banks and other financial institutions who are by law required to hand them over to the state after 3-5 years depending on the type of property.

According to the NAUPA, the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators,, Treasury Departments in each of the 50 states are holding on to more than 35 billion dollars in abandoned assets, owed to American citizens.
