They did not seem to be so keen on that in the last few years.

specifically "The Heart Attack"? Doesn't that conflict with all he proclaimed truth and holy that good diet is essential to heart health? Is he now disowning all his years of TV doctoring "advice" in the name of a few votes in the name of cheesesteaks? Mixed signals, much?

Oh, and yeah - go home to New Jersey, Jerko.

Hypocrisy, however, leaves a bad taste, and that's what Oz is serving up.

And Philly cheesesteaks are definitely not halal for an observant Muslim, although I will give him credit for being a very secular one.

Both Pat's and Geno's are sub par cheesesteaks. The one he is holding is especially sad and way too sanitary. You know he wasted it.

He's posing with Geno's. They're famous for their, "This is America: When ordering, please speak English," sign.

Where should I go for the best?

I'm one generation removed from Pennsylvania. Both of my parents grew up in Philadelphia, but when Dad was stationed in San Francisco after his stint in the Navy during WWII, Mom figured out that it didn't snow in SF. Nor did it get hot and muggy in the summer.

Therefore, a few years later I was born in San Francisco.

Your best bet is to go to any Mom and Pop shop. Plain old local neighborhood pizza places generally have the best cheese steaks. So, explore the neighborhood around your when you come visit.

If you want some more well-known names:
John's Roast Pork
Jim's on South Street
Dalassandro's

My dad, who LOVED cheese steaks also enjoyed a place outisde the city called Mama's on City Line Ave in Bala Cynwyd.
If you want to visit Dr. Oz in Jersey, there is a place in Camden called Donkey's. I've never been there, but I do know some Ohilly folks that love it.

But, my ultimate recommendation is any neighborhood pizza joint.

everyday for lunch for himself and anyone else who wanted to order out. Frusco's wasn't too far away and was on his list of places to call. Then he switched to calling a place in NJ, just off one of the bridges, probably the Tacony-Palmyra.

I've had better cheesesteak sandwiches from Vietnamese catering trucks in Silicon Valley.

It's kind of a red flag if you have to put Cheese-Wiz on a sandwich to make it taste good.

Not exactly negative, more like mocking, making fun of Oz. There is no comeback from those attacks.

Don't get me wrong, Fetterman also has a positive message, but he does the trolling a lot.

Wasn't Oz in the army? The Turkish army?

Yeah, I asked my 89 year old Trump lover if he was voting for the Muslim or the Harley rider? He answered he can't vote for Fetterman because he's a Democrat, those people are zombies and cannot be swayed.
