Back home there used to be a pizza shop near mine that offered gravy fries, so delicious. Then again, I reckon they also classified cheese steaks as subs.

OptOut | 8,881 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Yet another American food which seems to be nothing more than a delivery mechanism for cheese directly into your arteries... I mean, I like cheese. It's great. But, I mean... That's a LOT of cheese! Does everything need QUITE so much? Might as well just gnaw on a block of cheddar! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure it tastes good but it looks disgusting. I’ve never heard of this thing before but it looks like some kind of subway invention using a sub roll. So if I could vote I would say it looks like a sub. Also learnt a weird word reading this crazy thread, hoagie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can never have too much cheese (or dairy products of any sort)! --------------------------- And lest we forget we need to add New Orleans' poor boys (aka po boys, po-boys or po' boys) to the discussion.

ThePhleo | 2,184 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Guys you’re all insane... A sandwich is two pieces of bread with filler in between. A sub, hoagie, or grinder is one piece of bread with filler in the slit. A taco is a single piece of bread that is bent but not bent over itself with filler in the slit. A wrap, or burrito is a single piece of bread with filler inside, bent over itself. A patty, roll, or Stromboli is a single piece of bread with filler inside bent over itself before being cooked. If someone makes a cheesesteak with two pieces of bread (savages and degenerates) then it’s a sandwich....if they make it with one piece of bread (gentlemen and scholars) then it’s a sub/hoagie/grinder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question was is it it's own kind of sandwich, or classified as a sub (sandwich). I'm swayed but still not sure. Link's counter-evidence is strong.

CMR | 518 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 The best philly cheese steak I've ever eaten was at a gas station near where I lived back in 98-99. It was made on a hamburger bun with american cheese. Those things were awesome. I don't know why. My attempts to replicate them have all been failures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KokiriChild | 1,644 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 1. It is definitely a sub 2. Real Phillies have nacho-style cheez wiz and onions. And maybe some seasoning from a packet on top. 3. They are called grinders 4. I really want a sandwich now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I had gone down with my uncle, I remember the choices being "wid" or "widout", ie with cheese or no cheese. Of course I got with cheese, no way I'd get onions though.
