Poly + LDR = our crazy whirlwind

Hommie... You know i *adore* you... but if you bust on Philly ONE MORE TIME i just might have to HURT you.

I would never bust on Philly. Have I said one single negative thing about Philly? Okay, okay, maybe one, but have I said two. Hmm, bad example. I'm sure I stopped somewhere reasonable though.

:D

eh..he's just doin it cause he thinks it pisses me off ...:D

Not at all. I am saying it because I dislike Philly. And because I figured HM would eventually show up :devil:
 
Gaetano's.

i think i have been there/eaten food from there!

Hom...

You are an evil bastard. Seriously, for all its' faults Philly is "home" to me.

i am thrilled the three of you have found home in and with each other.
 
My absolute favorite cheesesteak isnt from Philly. It's from a place here in Jersey called Gaetano's. It is a small (still about 8 inches of bread and 8000 lbs of beef), garlic bread cheese steak with extra cheese. It uses american cheese, melted allthough it and placed on toasted garlic bread.

OK, now that sounds delicious!
8,000 lbs of beef, huh?

When Malin first bought one for me, I was way into overeating.. *blech* anyway, he suggested I get a small. I was silly and thought of other places and ordered a large. I never ordered a large I wasnt splitting again.

Large is 20 inches, Small is about 11 inches and the one I get now, is the mini, it's 6 inches. I would say, the two smaller sizes have near a pound of meat on them. so the large would be 2-3lbs.

Oh yeah..another "Philly" thing I'm going to miss when I move.. Panzarotti's

Thank you, darlin!

And I ever get elected Benevolent Dictator, I will put you in charge of all things Philly.

Cheese wiz = *retching noises*

I've never had cheese wiz or velveeta. Wait, I take that back. I once ate movie theater nachos. There must have been some sort of processed cheese food on that. I had an excuse though - I was PG at the time. :eek:

Again, I lay off the processed cheese these days...
But sometimes, once in a while....Velveeta is just what is needed...
....and on those days, Velveeta is just perfect.

I used to have such high hopes for you...

But at least I can hold to the belief that you would never order a Philly cheese steak with provolone. ;) [/hijack]

Homburg, my man, good luck with your triad. It will take more energy than I could muster to pay all the proper attention.

Thank you! Whenever anyone asks how I'm feeling these days, the inevitable answer is "Tired, but happy". :D

And, frankly, the only way to get a cheesesteak around here is with provolone.

I'd pack a can of Cheez-Whiz and ask for the cheesesteak plain, no cheese. Then lay on the Whiz to your heart's content (well, perhaps only your metaphoric heart, if you know what I mean). Cheez-Whiz is at least as traditional on a cheesesteak as Velveeta and is easier to carry around.

Would it help to know that it has been at least 20 years since Velveeta passed my lips? Or a fried bologna sandwich with yellow mustard? Or scrapple? All comfort foods of long ago... albeit really unhealthy ones....

(and really, Homburg...sorry about the hijack...I'll stop now since I'm getting hungry...)

My heart is content to have neither Cheese Whiz nor Velveeta anywhere in my life whatsoever. Both products cause me acute gastrointestinal distress. And they taste nasty. Ick.

Pfft. It's a cafe thread. Moreover, it is a shameless blog thread clothed lightly in discussion. Hijack away, I don't mind.

How dare you demean the cause of fried bologna with yellow mustard! Sacrilege, I say, sacrilege! At least you didn't suggest Heinz ketchup on the bologna. [/hijack once again]

Pardon me? I don't believe I demeaned the fried bologna sandwich.... in fact if I had any bologna anywhere near me right now I would make one and eat it with joy (and yellow mustard, which I do have.)

(Unless, of course, I missed your point...)

~LB

and are there people who actually put ketchup on fried bologna? Sad...very sad...

Let's see:

A) You equated fried bologna with Velveeta

B) You've apparently withheld the delight of fried bologna from yourself for two decades from a mis-applied sense of virtue

C) You could have named Ho-Ho or Twinkie cakes instead, as they are truly the work of the Devil but instead you focused on fried bologna.

Tsk, tsk. ;)

LOL! Touché

I will never again utter fried bologna in the same context as Velveeta for as long as I live. Nor will I ever eat Velveeta again.
But I might actually go and buy some bologna today...

And thanks for the giggle... :rose:

Good girl. ;)

To even think about putting ketchup on a fired bologna sandwich is wrong on so many levels. I'm sure it is a commandment somewhere, as well as a cardinal sin. :cattail:

Hey hey now, Twinkies may be the work of the Devil but they're the best food EVER. Let's not be harshin' my Twinkie addiction.

I doubt Homburg et al mind too much this horrible threadjack. They're all busy playing slap and tickle at the moment anyway.

Besides. Twinkie rhymes with Kinky.

That rhyming thing is the only redeeming factor that Twinkies can claim. LB's twenty-year hiatus from Velveeta is a mere third of the time that I have managed to keep a Twinkie from passing my lips (close anyway, by only a few years).

What could I do to get you to eat a Twinkie?

Ever tried 'em frozen? That's the best. You can slowly nibble off all the spongecake and then you just have this cool solidified creamy center to lick until it melts.

"Twinkie" was my nickname in college.

I respond to many things, but no amount of bribery, however enticing, will get me to willingly consume a Twinkie.

The trouble is that I know, more or less, what's in that "creamy" center and it has nothing to do with real cream.

My condolences.
