I've often wondered with NNJ calls it Taylor Ham instead of Pork Roll.


Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

Seriously, it would be interesting if one could find both packagings and compare the ingredient labels. I'm really not joking when I suggest that maybe the pork roll is made of what's left after they make the ham. The pork roll really is like a sausage.

Today brunch after church was a biscuit and gravy, with grits, and a cup of coffee. A new place has opened up near my place. It's called Scratch Biscuits, and they specialize in, well, biscuits! I'd been trying to find a time to try them.

What I had was good, especially the grits, but also a little odd. They seem to be trying to bill the place as "down home" food, and the decor is according, but the menu is actually a little, well, fancy. I've never heard of "biscuits and gravy" as being anything other than a biscuit with sausage gravy, but the gravy on my biscuit was a a sage gravy without a bit of meat in it. It was very tasty, but it wasn't what I was looking for or expecting. There didn't seem to be any plain old ham biscuit on the menu, and one of the combinations was named for Alice Waters.

Nevertheless, I will go again and recommend the place to my friends.

After I had the biscuit and gravy and grits, i went by the watering hole and had a Bloody Mary.  ::)

oh, I like biscuits and gravy.  I once had a great variation on eggs benedict,  instead of english muffins they used biscuits, and sausage instead of canadian bacon,  eggs on top, and then covered in sausage gravy.

very tasty.

Sounds very tasty!

Needs a Bloody Mary to top it off, though.  ;D

I'm not a bloody Mary person.  If I'm going to drink something with breakfast, it's either chocolate milk or hot chocolate.

I guess it depends on what packaging  you have.

This one says "Taylor pork roll"




This one says "Taylor Ham".




At the grocery store this afternoon I remembered to look for Taylor Ham. Nope, only Taylor Pork Roll. I would like to see what Taylor Ham looks like. I still suspect they are two different things produced by the same company, located in New Jersey. Taylor Pork Roll is like a large sausage. If Taylor Ham is like, well, slices of ham, then they aren't the same thing in different packaging.

I have to say, I don't think I've ever seen the yellow and red packaging in any store.

Now I'm confused.  ???  I thought you said you recently ate some Taylor's Ham.

How was it packaged?  ???

Here in NNJ we call pork roll "Taylor Ham" so in reality, I ate pork roll.
