Re: A quick poll about Cheesesteaks

This is the fundamental argument here. A "steak and cheese" while very good with its lettuce, mayo, mato and mushrooms is not a "cheesesteak" at all. A "cheesesteak" must be steak with cheese melted into it on the grill or cheese wizzed. Plain and simple. Both are great. But one of them you basically can only get in Philly. I settle for the other just about everywhere else and they are delicious.

This same argument applies to pizza versus Pizza Hut and Dominos. While I enjoy a fine "pizza" from Pizza Hut now and then there is certainly no way I'd call it real pizza. Just like the "subs" from Subway are just glorified sandwhiches and not really subs.
