解析：本题考核同位语从句的用法。同位语从句与定语从句容易混淆，区别在于：从语义角度看，同位语从句与先行词之间存在的是同位或等同的关系，而定语从句与先行词之间
连云港特色美食存在的是所属关系，表示“……的”，起修饰限定作用。从先行词的词性来看，同位语从句的先行词大都为抽象名词，而定语从句的先行词可以是名词，也可以是代词。从语法角度来看，引导同位语从句的that是连词，只起连接作用，在从句中不充当任何成分；而引导定语从句的that是关系代词，它除了起引导从句的作用之外，还要在从句中充当句子成分，主要是做主语或宾语。句中theory是名词，意为“理论”，其后面的句子已经有了主语、系动词和表语，只是对theory具体内容进行说明，因此，修饰theory的是同位语从句, 所以答案是C。
正确答案是：that
