    Why is this labelled “Unafilliated Contests”, as it is not unaffiliated, it is MLE.

    Why are they called pork rolls when they are served on a hamburger bun:

    Trenton is just a stones throw away from the low rent area of Matawan. Surprised 49kin didn’t show for a free meal then for a helping of being snubbed and ignored for dessert.

    @7:04 bc the pork is processed into a cylindrical shape (like a ROLLing pin) and then sliced. The “roll” refers to the shape of the pork product before it’s sliced. It doesn’t refer to the bread.

    None the less, those pork rolls are highly fat and sodium laden and you will be receiving and full analysis report by some one who resembles a pork roll, health guru Dr. Shmoykin.
