We love the Physical Check-in thread. I look forward to the next installment.

New Jerseyans get passionate about pork roll. We are an odd lot. Did you read on to see President Obama's comment on it when he spoke at Rutgers University years back?

"On May 15, 2016, President Barack Obama gave a commencement speech at Rutgers University's 250th graduation ceremony in which he referenced the "Taylor Ham vs. pork roll debate", saying, "I come here for a simple reason – to finally settle this pork roll vs. Taylor Ham question...I'm just kidding...There's not much I'm afraid to take on in my final year of office, but I know better than to get in the middle of that debate."

Pork roll (first introduced in the mid 1800s) is actually a much older product than SPAM (introduced in the late 1930s).

I have a deep love for New Jersey and its history.
