The Utah Teapot.

I always wondered why someone from Utah would model a teapot. After all, it's not very American. But now that I've just done some digging...

Martin Edward Newell is a British-born computer scientist specializing in computer graphics who is perhaps best known as the creator of the Utah teapot computer model.

Everything is clear to me now lol

Yeah, if it was a Utahn, it would probably be a soda cup.
