we need CELEBRITY FOOD DEATH MATCH!!! for the moment, let's leave out the celebrities. first, there has to be the national match-ups. let me pick on chris for a minute and nominate raleigh's glorified bbq. now for anyone not privileged enough to be from NC, bbq does NOT mean "saturated with red stuff." it means "saturated with clear stuff." duh. and, since we're starting with meat, let's be fair and do meat-on-meat. so, let's grab the ultra-famous philly cheesesteak. DUN DUN DUN!!!! it HAS to be a real cheesesteak, from philly, not from those crap joints in suburban maryland called "philly cheesesteaks." really. i've seen them. so we've got two big guns, each of whom could kill its respective consumer with rapid-firing saturated fats. ultimately, the philly cheesesteak KOs the bbq, on the grounds that, while i like the latter, a)i like the former better and b)the latter comes with hush puppies. barf.
every super bowl, my mom makes a dish from the two cities. sadly, we won't be have cheesesteaks two years in a row. sniff sniff :( THAT'S GENUINE SADNESS, OKAY?! anyway, she's made new england clam chowder (*note--i've always hated clam chowder, but now i have even more reason to do so; damn patriots), crab cakes (it'll be a long time before she makes them again, thank you, kyle boller) and italian sausage soup (you suck, giants). anyway, with the winter olympics coming up (we'll give the token nod, even though it's not nearly as exciting as the summer olympics; sorry, jenna), i propose a similar set-up. predictions, anyone?
*so that chris doesn't get nuts, i have to say that i really do like NC bbq. i just have to be true to my roots though. the NORTH wins again! :)
