Can someone from Philly explain why Cliff Huxtable was eating hoagies instead of cheesesteak?

There’s nothing to prove

You know damn well every store’s sign always says “Philly Subs, Steaks, Hoagies”. Stop acting new for the Coli everybody I grew up with calls it a Sub primarily, very few call them Hoagies. I heard it before but it’s rare to say. When you go to Wawa, it’s called a Sub. I lived in Chester. I guess everyone I knew just happened to not use the word Hoagie around me in all of these years. Maybe y’all prefer that term instead in Philly. I’ll admit I lived in Chester and other suburbs around Philly.

He was living in Brooklyn, we didn’t do cheese steaks.

Cliff was eating them chopped cheeses back in the 80s. He would get a chocolate soda cuz you can't forget the bev, never never

Arent they supposed to be "Herroes" tho?

You’re right. My fault, I erred. Hoagie is actually a Philly thing. But BK still didn’t do Cheese Steaks.

Did my Googles: Quora


“Hoagie seems most popular in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Hero seems centered around New York City, and Grinder is common in New England.

You will also find Italian sandwiches in Maine and Poor Boys in Louisiana.

I’m not sure I would really put the Po' boy in the same category. Although it is served on a long baguette, it usually contains roast beef or fried seafood rather than cold cuts.”

1. The show wasn't set in Philly so Cliff wasn't getting cheesesteaks in BK

2. Cliff always said he was getting hoagies from The White House which is this spot in Jersey:

3. Cosby probably just preferred hoagies over cheesesteaks

Hoagies were heavier and made women sleepy

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Because Blimpie was popping in NYC back then and had the best so called hoagies
