What the horsefeathers is that?

 

The Gerber consists of a half section of Italian or French bread, spread with garlic butter and topped with ham, and Provel or Provolone cheese, seasoned with a sprinkling of paprika and then toasted.

 

Honestly, that sounds pretty good.

It would be pretty good with a type of cheese other than provel. I thought they only used that horsefeathers on pizza, and I only mostly hated them. Now... honestly, the whole city needs wiped off the face of the Earth.

I honestly hadn't heard of provel before...but the wikipedia entry is great...

 

Provel is a white processed cheese particularly popular in St. Louis cuisine, that is a combination of cheddar, Swiss, and provolone cheeses, and tastes nothing like any of them.

That's the twisted point; every example of "St. Louis cuisine" is just them taking something good and horsefeathering it up and then declaring it to be food. How does someone screw up meat, cheese and bread? Well, take a good hard look.

 

Or how about the inexplicably named St. Paul sandwich?

The St. Paul sandwich can be found in many Chinese American restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri, as well as other cities in Missouri, including Columbia, Jefferson City, and Springfield. The sandwich consists of an egg foo young patty (made with mung bean sprouts and minced white onions) served with dill pickle slices, white onion, mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomato between two slices of white bread.

It's a crime against humanity. It looks like a block of butter gone bad, and when cooked it has the consistency of melted wax paper with a sweet, rubbery taste that kind of tastes vaguely of something dairy-ish. God help whatever you cooked it on to, because a single bite is pulling EVERYTHING in or on the cheese off.

They sell that horsefeathers in grocery stores. When I first moved there, I wondered, "What is that wad of oily, extruded-looking horsefeathers in the dairy section?"

Provel, man. horsefeathering provel.

Knowing about provel is essential in understanding exactly how depraved these people are. All of the BFIB stuff makes perfect sense when you realize they eat that horsefeathers and are proud to be known for it.

The really sick horsefeathering part is that they have it made in Wisconsin and shipped in. WISCONSIN. Land of delicious cheeses. All of the cheese options available from that wonderland and they come up with PROVEL?!? I'm going to go back to the Mars Cheese Castle and rend my garments and gnash my teeth in anguish.

i love when mojo goes on one of his weird food posting rampages

 

 

where's that one dude who always gets mad about it?

Is there a possibility that Lackey won't start, thus the title change?

the cubs site listed it TBD when I made the change and it's still that way now

 

Maybe Lackey is threatening to fly out tonight because he can't bear to eat St. Louis food for another day.

There's a ton of great food down here, but that list includes almost none of the stuff they claim as their own. Pork steaks and gooey buttercake are about it. Proven is so bad melted on anything but is tolerable when it's cold and still has some structure to it.

Even the butter cake is something they inexplicably tried to steal as their own; that horsefeathers is totally a Mid-Atlantic German/Dutch thing.

Lackey getting confused by the concept of "St. Louis food"
