I didn't know what the hell Taylor Ham was, I always knew it as Pork Roll.

LOL. I can't give you more rep until I spread it around

Of course it's a lie, Tahiti. It was predicted that you'd be in this situation xamount of years later.

This must be "you know you're from north jersey if..."

Everyone knows they're called hoagies! I've never in my life heard of a hard roll or Taylor Ham. "What Exit" does apply, but only to the parkway.

Never called it a hoagie...not even here, in Ocean County. A large sandwich is either a sub or a hero...or even a Blimpie, if you were lucky enough to have a Blimpie Base near you.

Hey Tahiti, how is this? I still remember the phone number of the BLimpie Base in Bayonne.

We just moved to Houston, Texas from Jersey, and would you believe they sell Taylor Pork Roll in a popular grocery store down here?!
It knocked our socks off when we saw this!! I thought we would have to special order it.
