Fuck those philly cheesesteak garbage. They put fucking cheezwhiz on that shit its so gross. I asked for white cheese and they gave me a face and it was a terrible sandwich.
What's up with people getting defensive over people eating their local food in a not shitty way.
People in Philly getting upset if you want a cheese that doesn't taste like plastic on your sandwich.
Chicago getting offended if you put ketchup on the food that LITERALLY wrote the book on unhygienic food manufacturing.
New Yorkers giving you the side eye if you want to taste the bagel instead of just chew in mouthfuls of cream cheese.
And theres often lines going around the block during lunch time. Theres a place in my city that is like that for terrible dry corned beef sandwiches that everyone loses their shit over. Its just a pile of shit corned beef between two tiny untoasted pieces of rye. One of my favorite things to do is steer people away from going there especially if they're from out of town.
Its like some super shitty regional nationalistic pride that your favorite sandwich is your identity and both are absolute shit.
The east coast, chicagoans, and Californians would invade each other if they could
Decent places will have non-whiz options available and won't give you shit for selecting one. Stay away from Pat's and Geno's.
The place I went had a white cheese option which I got and it was super dry and the cheese they used had no flavor.
So you did get a proper Philly cheesesteak then. The amount of hype this mediocre sandwich gets is concerning. The
can now tell the difference between two heavily processed sandwiches but can't even understand the difference between gender and sex.
Grew up outside of Philly, never even knew there was a version with cheezwhiz until I went to college in Arizona where a bunch of people from the west coast told me that I didn't know what I was talking about and that it's not a Philly cheesesteak if it doesn't have cheezwhiz on it.
