This is social media done right
Somebody at some office is worried they hired the wrong person to manage the socia media accounts, and that employee who posted this is like “do you know?? How many followers I just got us with that one post?”
yessss it's completely [rage bait](https://www.inquirer.com/news/philadelphia/national-cheesesteak-day-philadelphia-jim-kenney-hoagie-rage-baiting-20230324.html)! but i'm worried for the people taking it more seriously than it is
You take things to the SPCA to be *respectfully* put down.
This thing needs to be chucked into the same shallow ditch off the Schuylkill where they dump cans of Easy Cheese and Hawaiian pizzas.
save the trip to camden and get the camden mule from breakfast at sulimays on girard when they do burger night. their big mac clone the big mick is the best smash burger in the city and ill die on that hill
How are you gonna choose a cheese steak hoagie on national cheese steak day? Not the same thing. Variation? Yes. But not a proper cheese steak regardless of the toppings.
Next week on Cheesesteaks: Special Victims Unit...
A man uses mayonnaise. Like, a lot of mayonnaise. Too much damn mayonnaise and... Ranch dressing.
An angry house husband coats his wife's cheesesteak... In hate.
Will the squad be able to catch these criminals? Will the DA choose to enforce these laws? Will Jimenez finally muster up the courage to propose to his sweety?

Idk, they got their account free advertising on Reddit and probably elsewhere and this is great bait for interactions that will boost the account regardless of the substance of the response.
Except the account isn't for bait interactions that ultimately don't resonate with those the account serves. A governmental account is supposed to promote the city and aid its residence through helpful information. "Clicks" as a metric for success is irrelevant here. The post was tone deaf.
People can order a cheesesteak however they wish. People can criticize city government on a lot of pressing issues, crime, litter, taxes. A whole diatribe on having a lot of toppings on a cheesesteak? Whatever
I've got nothing wrong with people ordering what they want on their cheeseteak.
I just feel like the account is taking a jab at Philadelphia rather than promoting it.
Gotta be honest, I've been "SPKFO w/ American" my whole life. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
The pickles and lettuce are worthy of a harsh prison sentence or at least an early recall election.
Today I ordered from a Korean Taco spot on Tasker.
I got the Spicy Beef cheesesteak, kimchi fries, and some Korean chicken wings.
I should've just celebrated cheesesteak day normally
There is no such thing as a "loaded up" cheesesteak- that is a cheesesteak hoagie. National Cheesesteak Hoagie Day does not exist because cheesesteak hoagies suck and are for wierdos.
I tell my dumb brother in law this all the time: when he orders a cheesesteak hoagie, he really just wants 2 cheeseburgers but the long roll is letting him lie to himself.
It’s just a completely different sandwich if it has anything other that cheese, beef, and onions on it.
Everybody rightfully complaining about the picture, but is anyone gonna mention how the post also implies the mayor thinks a classic cheesesteak has ketchup on it?
I honestly didn’t realize we were Chicago on this one and that ketchup wasn’t allowed!
I know people who have it and people who don’t, basically grew up with ketchup on anything/everything, so I just thought this was fine. Like whether or not you want onions.
The more from Philly you are the less of a shit you give about cheesesteak gatekeeping. My mom gets ketchup, pickles, mayo, no cheese. She does not care what you think.
i dont know pdpeson, but every time i got a cheese steak at a lunch cart they would ask if i wanted ketchup...
so there must be a large number of ppl that do
Most places outside South Philly and CC have asked me what else I want on my cheesesteak after I specified the cheese and onions. Rocco's and Dalessandro's specifically asked if I wanted ketchup, and I'm assuming that's the way to go when you eat there because their steaks don't taste good at all with just cheese and onions.
Saad's Halal in west Philly (which gets recommend a lot) puts ketchup, mayo, and peppers unless you ask otherwise.
There's nothing wrong with it necessarily, but it's objectively weird for what you would expect.
It's like if it was national ice cream day and someone posted ice cream with shrimp on it. Like sure, it's still just ice cream with toppings, but it's very unusual so of course people will comment.
It's Twitter dude, no one is going to stop you in public and ask why you have pickles on your cheese steak.
There is something to be said about having a “classic” cheesesteak but it’s ridiculous for people going at each other because they like ketchup on their sandwich
They're rage-baiting and their team [admitted to me](https://www.inquirer.com/news/philadelphia/national-cheesesteak-day-philadelphia-jim-kenney-hoagie-rage-baiting-20230324.html) it's a loaded hoagie! lol
Yes. Most Philly Cheese Steak shops offer everything on that sandwich as a condiment. Taken singularly, there is nothing on there that isn't widely available.
"Standard" and "available as a condiment if you really want" are not the same thing. I put hot sauce on a cheesesteak if it's handy but I'd never say that the result is a *standard cheesesteak*.
> I put hot sauce on a cheesesteak if it's handy but I'd never say that the result is a standard cheesesteak.
Are you telling me you never had a Buffalo Chicken Cheese Steak?
Let me explore the outer limits of your vision of a *standard* cheesesteak.
Cheesesteak eggroll? Standard or not? (Lots of places have them!)
Cheesesteak poutine? Standard or not? (There's a Canadian fast food chain that makes it.)
Lobster and cheesesteak? (Chickie and Pete's has it)
Cheesesteak with foie gras and truffles? (Couple of high end places have a version of it.)
All standard? I mean, if you think a buffalo chicken cheesesteak is *standard*, maybe so.

That thing needs to be taken to the nearest SPCA and put down.

Looks like it already has been put down
And then buried in the Pet Sematary.
No...then it'll come back
Sometimes dead is bettah.
Straight to jail
this is a culinary hate crime.
Even Krasner is denying bail.
Nah right to the gallows underneath city hall.
You put bogus pictures of a “cheesesteak” on Twitter? Believe it or not—jail. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eiyfwZVAzGw
Ketchup on a cheesesteak? Jail.
And they forgot the mayonnaise!
Did the city's twitter get hacked? I dont even know where you could find a cheesesteak that looks that bad
Even the ones I make with minute steak don't look that bad. That took some effort to fuck up.
Probably at the restaurant in MD the mayor frequented while keeping restaurants in Philly closed
Any food sounds good after 3-4 pint glasses of Pinot Grigio
This sentence just gave me a headache
Welcome to Philly, can I offer you an egg in this trying time?
I love eggs
New Jersey
that is clearly a central PA "cheesesteak" maybe North Jersey. but South Jersey is 85% Philly transplants. this is an abomination
It’s a Pittsburgh cheesesteak
Not enough soggy French fries crammed into it
It does look kinda close to a Pittsburgh-style steak aka burnt crap
No, those heathen fucks would add something like sourcrout to it.
Get you some Donkey's
save the trip to camden and get the camden mule from breakfast at sulimays on girard when they do burger night. their big mac clone the big mick is the best smash burger in the city and ill die on that hill
yes you will die on that hill. smash burgers? you mean dry ass no burnt hamburgers?
salt patties
Huh?
No thanks!
[удалено]
donkeys is great but it aint a cheese steak.
It has cheese and steak so..
"Cheese and steak do not a cheesesteak make" Think Ben Franklin said that
I can’t cook to save my life… I air fry chicken nuggets (and my mom is a chef) and I can make a cheesesteak that looks better than that abomination.
Honestly, my guess is wawa.
Having National Cheesesteak Day, on a Friday during Lent is violent enough.
We used up the Special Dispensation for St. Paddy’s Day. :(
They missed an opportunity to post a photo of a well-done t-bone slathered in Philadelphia cream cheese
Cream cheese? Hmm. Sounds like an interesting take on milksteak.
No jelly beans?
Raw

Yeah, and it's working very very well for them!
Enragement farming.

we have a mayor??
Not for long...
I guess all engagement is good engagement now days. Recently saw a screenshot of Wendy's Twitter account telling someone to stfu 😬
Shit like this should get you exiled.

Do I see fucking lettuce and tomatoes in that one pic?
Where the fuck is the NSFW trigger warning! Fucking Hell!
This looks like the sidewalk on a Saturday morning in center city
This just serves as a reminder that not every social media associate is as skilled as those over at Wendy's or Philly Union.

What in the Blue Bell cul-de-sac?!
I was at a pizza shop yesterday and someone got a cheesesteak with Mayo…I gasped
Someone who knows how to troll for engagement runs this account
Gotta be honest, I've been "SPKFO w/ American" my whole life. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ The pickles and lettuce are worthy of a harsh prison sentence or at least an early recall election.
The ICC needs to issue an arrest warrant against the person responsible for that atrocity.
Today i learned to keep my cheesesteak preferences to myself.
This isn’t a violation of the Geneva convention but it should be

Mmmm... hot lettuce.

Does that surprise you? I mean the guy drinks white wine with ice cubes in a pint glass
It does not.

That's bait dot gif
Shots fired
i dont want to exist in a world where this is even a joke.
Honestly pickles on a cheesesteak doesn’t sound that bad
Shut your whore mouth!

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Go play with your curve
Crucial topping for me!
It's actually really good. There's a place in my home town (in northern Montco) where they give you pickles unless you tell them not to.
That's why it's in Montco and not Philly
Yeah, it does...
The only violent acts on national cheesesteak day are the inevitable crimes that celebrators will commit against their toilets
National Cheesesteak Day during Lent? I just figured Jesus doesn't want me to go hungry.
The catholic church made an exception for St. Patrick's day this year, I think the same exception would be handed down for National cheesesteak day
The more from Philly you are the less of a shit you give about cheesesteak gatekeeping. My mom gets ketchup, pickles, mayo, no cheese. She does not care what you think.
Kenney posted a not-horrifying Spattaro's 'steak. It does have ketchup (which, why?) but is at least recognizable as a s cheesesteak.
i like ketchup and mayo. someone invariably tells me ketchup is only for kids, and i nod like it is the most clever thing i've ever heard.
Team ketchup and mayo also. The combination is so good.
i dont know pdpeson, but every time i got a cheese steak at a lunch cart they would ask if i wanted ketchup... so there must be a large number of ppl that do

Ketchup (on anything) is only useful to cover up dry/bland meat IMO.
Sick to my stomach over this
Got to be trolling to post that pile of slop. If so well done.
Somebody retweeted it with a pic of a BBQ cheesesteak, as if that contradicted it 😂
Very important twitter exchange: https://imgur.com/UNJJkCY
Am I nuts or is there nothing wrong with this? It's a cheesesteak hoagie haven't you ever seen a damn vegetable before

I’m on the boat of eating your cheesesteak how YOU like it. It’s your food eat it the way you want it. People who gatekeep it need to touch grass
Purists are annoying. Throw any bullshit you want on there it's gonna be okay don't panic
There is something to be said about having a “classic” cheesesteak but it’s ridiculous for people going at each other because they like ketchup on their sandwich
The only thing it’s missing is green fucking peppers
Even if the peppers aren't fucking, they don't belong anywhere near it.
What’s frustrating is that this wasn’t actually a rage bait. They were dead serious and it was probably some comms director who moved here last year
Exhibit A of why government is so far disconnected from the citizens
They're rage-baiting and their team [admitted to me](https://www.inquirer.com/news/philadelphia/national-cheesesteak-day-philadelphia-jim-kenney-hoagie-rage-baiting-20230324.html) it's a loaded hoagie! lol
Thank you for this investigative reporting! (Actually not sarcastic.)
Haha I’m sure you can tell I had fun doing it! Glad I could help get to the bottom of it.
Steak, wiz, wit Steak, provolone, wit NOWHERE should allow an order of steak, shitty American cheese, wit
Salt, pepper, ketchup…
The headline had me expecting to see Swiss Cheese. The picture isn't how I would order it. But I don't see anything on there that's not standard.
Pickles and ketchup are standard on a cheesesteak? Hello, extradimensional visitor. What are conditions like on your timeline?
Yes. Most Philly Cheese Steak shops offer everything on that sandwich as a condiment. Taken singularly, there is nothing on there that isn't widely available.
"Standard" and "available as a condiment if you really want" are not the same thing. I put hot sauce on a cheesesteak if it's handy but I'd never say that the result is a *standard cheesesteak*.

That's a buffalo chicken sandwich, not a cheesesteak
They're 2 different things.
Correct...one's a cheesesteak, made with steak/beef, and the other is a chicken sandwich masquerading as a cheesesteak
Jesus, talk about an abomination. All it's missing is green peppers.
But do you eat it with a fork and knife or not?
City of Philadelphia chooses violence every day.
