does anybody in TV make cheese perogies? I know of the polish deli in Leesberg but they make it with sweet cheese..

Back home I could go to Philly and find many places to buy

While living in Honolulu the most common breakfast, believe it or not, was fried Spam and Eggs with a side of rice.

I generally went with the 2d most popular, portugese sausage with eggs and rice.

Rippers as in hot dogs that are crispy overcooked? Yup, love it! And I know what you mean about the pizza. It's the water. They did some tv show where they made pizza with water from different places and they taste tested and proved it was the NY/NJ water. The best pizza. Also, bagels are only bagels when they're made with great water and boiled first; chewy outside and bready inside.
Anyone know about Sloppy Joes but not the ground meat ones. I'm talkin' about the deli 3 layer ones with corned beef and cole slaw, turkey and Russian dressing. Sooo good. Most people who have never had one look at me like I am making that up but you have to experience it to believe it and the rye bread has to be just right.
When I moved from NJ to PA I was looking for an old NJ standard of a buttered roll for breakfast at a convenience store and couldn't find one anywhere. When I asked a clerk if she could make me one she tried to butter a hamburger roll. Apparently they had no idea about buttered hard rolls. To them a hard roll is one leftover from last week!

To this list I add Cincinnati Chili (Skyline), Graters Ice Cream, La Rosa pizza. Some people I know love Limburger and onion sandwiches. I pass on that. I love the goetta. Down here I have to make my own. Bummer. At least I can get Skyline chili at Walmart.

Goetta is whole oats, pork, beef and onion cooked real soft the placed in a pan and baked in the oven. It is then cooled. sliced and fried up as a breakfast meat with eggs etc. Absolutely yummy.

Those are not the same thing. They dont have lovely polish hands making them.

Need to find a polish restaurant down here. Back in Philly and Port Richmond where I lived as a young man we had many places to go and buy them, including catholic churches. They used the extra costs to buy more and provide services to those in need. We dont have that around anymore. The economy was tough then as it is now and people supported one another to cope with it.

Gosh I miss it. I will look into a polish club if one is down here and see if they make or sell them.
