Re: Regional Words
New York State is big enough for regionalisms within the state. If you're out in western NY (Buffalo and environs), you can have 'beef on weck,' which is a sliced roast beef sandwich on a particular kind of roll. And if you're in central NY in the Southern Tier area (in and around Binghamton), you can have a 'spiedie,' which is made of marinated chunks of meat (beef? pork?) on a skewer and barbecued. Neither of these concoctions exist in the Hudson Valley (southeastern NYS) where we live. Both delicious--go figure....
