So how long do you think it'll take before everyone gets sick of the whole Jon Gruden story line?
Pet Peeve # whatever the hell I'm on-
I grew up in Philly. I know what a Philly Cheese steak is- think strips of meat, melted provelone or (even better) melted cheese whiz on an Amoroso roll. Onions and peppers optional. They are a little taste of heaven. Philly Cheese Steaks do not have pickles on them. They do not have tomatoes nor do they come with lettuce. But most importantly, they do not HAVE MAYO ON THEM.
Seriously, what is it with Californians and Mayo? Doesn't anyone here realize how disgusting mayo is? Don't people realize that mayo doesn't have to go on everything?
There should be some sort of law that says if you call yourself a "Philly Cheese Steak" place, especially if you're claiming to be from Philly, it has to be a Philly Cheese Steak. That means no pickles, no lettuce and no mayo. And that means no T-Bone steak with American cheese on a sourdough roll too. There's gotta be some sort of Food Police that goes out and makes sure that people sell what they advertise. Either that or Philadelphia should go out and sue people for slandering the city's reputation like that. It's like if you're offering "New York Style Deli Sandwhiches" you must have rye bread (it's happened!). Nor bean sprouts and for God's sake- and this is especially true of "New York Style Deli Sandwiches"- NO MAYO. And if you say you're a New York Style Bagel, your bagels do not come in whole weat, do not taste like a loaf of bread with a whole in it, or come in such flavors as "jalapena" or "blueberry."
Damnit, I'm serious about this.
