Philly Pasteurized-Process-Cheese-Food-Steak doesn’t quite have the same ring, does it?

(I actually like either whiz or provolone on my cheesesteaks. When I make them at home, though, I make them with provolone, because there’s no real reason for me to have Whiz around the house.)

There is something recklessly liberating about eating a “Whiz Steak wit”… it is like taunting death…

I demand this thread be closed until I can get down to Philly and get a decent cheesesteak.
