Boar's Head deli meats...the name alone had me running whenever I seen it being used on hoagies. Now I read about listeria outbreak, but it goes back even further with Boar's Head, to 2022 when reports were made about the plant where the listeria started. Things like "rife with insects, blood puddles" tells me they were putting the dollar before it's customers.

The last picture… where is that sandwich from?

My kind of article this.

Being British, I struggle enough finding a decent Philly cheese steak, which to me is the king of sandwiches. I'm on holiday in Orlando at the moment, so I'm going between rollercoasters and a lot of melted low quality cheese, and I'm enjoying it immensely. Such cultural exchanges for me make the "special relationship" that little bit more special.

Every Sunday I do slow cooked roast beef sandwiches with beef gravy for my family. I pimp mine up with roasted chicken breast and sage & onion stuffing too for a full carvery sandwich experience, including a portion of beef dripping roast potatoes on the side. Bread wise the best option is a fresh stottie from Morgan's bakery, a Teesside institution, but you've gotta get them on order on a Saturday because they don't open on Sundays. I think they make em with lard or something. Thoroughly delightful.
