Anonymous Coward User ID: 656008 United States 04/22/2009 06:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That's true. Oddly enough there is one exception here in Fort Worth. A place called Billadelphia's serves authentic Philly cheesesteaks. He even gets the Amoroso's rolls shipped down. I've never had a cheesesteak in Philly, but my old boss is from PA and he said that it was authentic. Of course the owner of the place is a Philly native, so it doesn't really count. Other than that I've never had anything close here. Quoting: DrPostmanI've been to Pat's. Once you have one in Philly you will understand why others can only come close. Of course, for you Geno's fans out there, my next visit will be across the street just to be fair to both. But as far as another Philly staple called scrapple I still think I'll pass on that adventure. Smart man, Dr. P. Beware the Scrapple. However you MUST try a Taylor Ham, Egg & Cheese sammich. Be sure to ask for slat/pepper/ketchup. And while you're at it, get yourself to a real pizza parlor and indulge in the king of all dogs... an Italian Hotdog. Damn, man... no such thing as GREAT food here. Now I'm jonesing for Philly Phood |

Winningjob User ID: 385114 United States 04/22/2009 07:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have lived in the North, the South, The East, the West and the Mid-West. I can tell you there is not one right or wrong place to live. To generalize people by geographic location shows the stupidity of the person doing the generalization. It also shows the lack of education and real-world experience of that person as well as lack of love while growing up. It is sad that someone would say anything bad about the North, South, West, East or Mid-West...it shows how unhappy this person is and how much they have yet to learn. This type of person needs to travel the world more and experience different countries to see all the different cultures, religions and understand both genders as well. |

Quoting: DrPostmanI am all at once horrified, fascinated, disgusted, and intrigued by the very concept of what they do to their fish. Lutefisk is OK if you pour a lot of melted butter on it...otherwise it just tastes like rubber. Pickled herring, on the other hand, is NEVER good. The lefsa, not so bad and the ableskievers are pretty good as are the knip kners (not sure if that is spelled correctly), all the various almond cookies, and cinnamon milk rice (we never ate rice cooked in water). And casseroles...you aren't a true Northerner (from the Northern Midwest, anyway) unless you have a recipe file filled with a couple hundred casserole dishes. |

Plus I have seen people who are inbreed up here. So being lazy isn't a regional thing. Any way that war is over way before my time, My GG grandpa was in Lees army wounded in 2nd Manassas the wilderness and Ceder Creek Virginia. We were never taught to hate, Plus up here the black people have always treated me with respect, where most white christians wouldnt give me the time of day. Any way Im a 20% disabled veteran, my first cousin was killed in Vietnam in the 101st Airborne, my uncle got the Purple Heart and Silver Star for valor in the marines in Korea in 1952.
