Nobody makes a real Philly Cheese Steak outside of Philly...

John Madden once said that is because, outside of Philly, people attempt to make them with real food.

Is that some kind of PC Philadelphia cultural appropriation? I've had plenty of great Philly Cheese Steaks outside of Philly. It's not rocket science.

It brings a tear to my eye every time I realize the truth of this statement. I just had one for lunch today...100 miles from Phili. It filled me up, but it just wasn’t the same. One absolute necessity virtually impossible to find outside of the city is an Amoroso sub roll.

I beg to differ, but only slightly. A local real estate guy (originally from Philly), created a place that had "true" Philly steak sandwiches, complete with rolls baked in Philly and shipped to him overnight, and Cheez Whiz.

Place went out of business in about 4 months. Guess it's an acquired taste.
