Cheesesteak public service announcement
 
Sonic restaurants are running an ad for their new food product, the "extra long Philly Cheesesteak".

In the ad, two gentlemen are seen eating their cheesesteaks by using plastic forks to scoop out the meat in the middle of the sandwich.

This is an abomination. A sin, actually. Cheesesteaks are eaten hot dog-style. Eating one with a plastic fork would be like picking up your filet mignon with your fingers.

Also, the actual standard Philly steak is longer than the Sonic "extra long".

That is all

I said the same thing when I saw that ad. What jerk-offs! I always eat my cheesesteak doggie-style, I mean hot dog-style. And it looks like there are green peppers in it! Green peppers! Ugh!

Wow - even I know that is wrong and I have never even had a real cheesesteak. It wouldn't even enter my mind to eat it with a FORK!!

Hey, I like green peppers!! But yeah, the whole fork business is an abomination.

:redface: I had to eat my last cheesesteak with a fork. (I'm not allowed to eat bread.)
I'm very, very sorry.

It actually wasn't too bad. I was thinking about getting a couple'o steaks worth of the meat, cheese and onions in a "to-go" container and using a low-carb wrap delivery method at home. :yum: I miss cheesesteaks. I miss potatoes. :mecry:

I would also like to add, for the good of the public, that what Sonic is selling is about as much like a real cheesesteak as the Royals are like a real baseball team. They seem plausible until you've actually had them in front of you.

"Cheesesteak snob" - in all history, nobody has ever put those two words together before. :D

Come to Philly, and you'll learn what you *should* say it is.

When I was in high school, the family took a trip to Virginia. We had lunch at a diner-type family restaurant. On the menu was a steak sandwich, so that's what I ordered. Imagine my surprise when I got a slab of meat, like a sirloin, on a hamburger bun.
