What food does your home town specialize in?

DragoonKain is right. Once you have a real Philly cheesesteak, you'll find it is nearly impossible to duplicate it elsewhere.

My hometown of Chicago has the biggest competition for deep dish pizza. I personally like Gullivers much more than Lou Malnatis, because in comparison, Lou's crust tastes like cardboard. As far as an overall good deep dish pizza, I really like Giordannos, especially for their 1/2 off Monday nights.

Chicago style hot dogs are also a big deal. A real vienna hotdog, mustard, relish, diced onions, tomatoes, quarter slice pickle, hot peppers, and Lawry's seasoning salt. Once ketchup is added, it is no longer a real Chicago style hotdog. My New York friends will argue that their hot dog is better because of the price, but who cares about the price when it is ultimately the taste that counts the most.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Pretty much everything you eat has some kind of corn in it, wether it's cow fed with corn to corn syrup, etc, etc.

Iowa corn? Ooooh it's all about the Illinois soy suckas!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oddly enough, it does look familiar. I wish I could remember the movie I have seen it in.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
