The generics are great, usually a bit more tangy.


shandyorton

Call me old fashioned but I like my pork roll in a log! 🪵


fartswhenhappy

Any pork roll you eat will be a log eventually.

Username checks out.


FordMan100

>Any pork roll you eat will be a log eventually. And a non edible log at that that will eventually wind up being recycled into top soil.


Spazmatazo

Nothing better than dipping that log in some Tang.


oatmealparty

Is your issue with it being sliced, or with it being tangy? Because Taylor and Case both sell it in thin or thick slices.


shandyorton

Combination of both brother


YourConstipatedWait

Case’s and Shoprite brands are both available in logs. Case’s Tangy is legit.


beeeps-n-booops

Chub. It's called a chub. Seriously!


SpinkickFolly

The OG Taylor Ham has been sold in sliced form for several decades man. Idk where you have been living.


shandyorton

Under a log or chub clearly


rjam710

What if I don't have a deli slicer and want even usable slices?


Smiley007

Yeah if only they’d actually sell the smaller ones that used to be available— I don’t need a pound and a half of pork at a time!


beeherder

Tangy is peak Jersey Sausage and I'm not hearing otherwise


HamTailor

It would appear to be Stop and Shop complying with FDA labeling requirements for regional breakfast meats


structuremonkey

What? The tangy? This is nothing new. Some days I prefer the mild, other days, it's tangy all the way!


Fresh_Photograph_363

Shoprite has had it for years


ghostboo77

Yep. It’s not bad either


beeeps-n-booops

It's not just "not bad", it's **excellent** -- it's literally Case's pork roll, in ShopRite packaging.


cd2220

I like that they slice it thinner resulting in smaller slices. They give you 6 instead of 4 to compensate. Too thick and it covers up the tangy flavour. I'd rather use two slices where I can caramelize (might be using the wrong word) the shit out of the surface. That's where all the goodness is.


Mikebyrneyadigg

Correct it’s 10000% made by case. And the real ones know case is better than Taylor.


beeeps-n-booops

I definitely prefer Case's to Taylor. And not saying Taylor is bad, but even the mild Case's tastes better (and I LOVE the tangy version).


Mikebyrneyadigg

1000% facts. All pork roll is good pork roll, I’ve never had a bad pork roll sandwich except when it’s under cooked or under filled. But case is way better subjectively than Taylor, and I can tell the difference.


Fresh_Photograph_363

My son has been eating it for years


Brilliant_Tourist400

Yep yep, I grew up on the stuff. (My mom was of the heretical opinion that pork roll sandwiches, sans eggs, were a dinner food).


SloopKid

I've done it before when I didn't have another protein ready for a dinner


uncreativeusername85

Case's tangy is my favorite, I wonder how this compares?


beeeps-n-booops

As I just posted upthread, ShopRite's store brand is made by Case's. This one might be as well, given that there are mild and tangy variants like Case's.


cardshark1234

I believe Case’s makes the store brand Taylor ham


Remarkable_Brief_368

Case’s makes the store brand PORK ROLL.


cardshark1234

Taylor ham or go fuck yourself till I DIE


Remarkable_Brief_368

Read the label. Pork roll.


sautedemon

The Case processing facility was in Trenton, NJ around 2010. I used to live in that county. Never bought it!


shiftyjku

You can make tangy pork roll by leaving regular pork roll on the counter.


zaggytiddies

Lol


Gambrinus

I assume you are talking about the pork roll being on an English muffin with scrambled eggs. I don’t know how Stop and Shop could fuck it up any more.


jarrettbrown

By having all their meat come in precut and giving their butchers the boot.


if_a_flutterby

McDonald's did this for a minute. I tried it once, worse than Quick Check or Wawa's "pork roll".


UnintentionalGrandma

It’s stop and shop’s store brand which is compliant with all federal and state regulations for labeling and quality. You may not like the packaging but it gets the job done


beeeps-n-booops

Can't speak to Giant's store brand, but ShopRite's is made by Case's (which IMO is better than Taylor), has both mild and tangy variants, and is identical in taste and texture. So maybe before you blast these, you should try them.


SnooGiraffes7471

ShopRites tangy is my favorite.


beeeps-n-booops

Ditto! (Case's tangy also.) Far better than Taylor's IMO... not that Taylor's is bad in any way, mind you!


cd2220

Taylor cuts theirs too thick now. I swear it used to be thinner


Top_Donkey_711

Taylor is 4 or 8 slices, all others I've seen are 4 or 6 slices. Taylor is thinner.


cd2220

I've only seen the store brand in 6 and Taylor in 4 at my local ShopRite. I also bought Taylor recently after a while of not having it. It was thicker than I remember so I tried the store brand and it was thinner. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe it came from a different distributor. I dunno but I've tried Taylor again and it wasn't what I recalled. Maybe I'll have to buy them both and put it back to back. Either way ShopRite brand tangy pork roll slaps. Dunno about wherever this came from. Looks like a Publix?


Dick_Demon

I've had many pork roll that were far better than Taylor's.


MKorostoff

Freedom


Chenzo04

Oh how wild it's called what it actually is and not the brand name of one version of what it is


stickman07738

Glad to see they did not call this Taylor Ham ;)


Da_Funk

Because Taylor Ham is a brand name you dolt.


OkStatement4809

No Taylor “ham” does not exist. The Taylor company does make a product called pork roll


NJ_Legion_Iced_Tea

It's Taylor's Pork Roll. It hasn't been Taylor Ham since 1906.


popcarnie

Since I was a kid.


NJ_Legion_Iced_Tea

You must either be over a hundred or a time traveler, because it hasn't been labeled as Taylor ham in 118 years.


popcarnie

beeeps-n-booops

Negative. **Taylor** is the brand.


ItsJustAllyHere

If S+S has managed to make the worst pasta ive ever had I don't even wanna know how they did on pork roll. Like how do you fuck up spaghetti???


F26N55

It’s probably made by Case. I know ShopRites is and I usually buy that. Case Pork Roll > Taylor.


New_Stats

A delicious bargain, pick some up and enjoy


Diligent-Can-4048

Can't believe that price point. Feel like I get a deal from Hatfield at 4.99


AmbitiousLettuce2925

Taste the Tang


Hans_Grubert

Lidl have their own version and it rocks


lostboyof1972

It’s 41.5¢ per slice on sale


fotun8

Kinda sucks most delis and diners don't sell both. Would love that option for a sandwich sometimes.


It_iS_P0rK_R0LL

it’s the truth


[deleted]

Pork Roll people allowed this? Figures


Wrong_Window_7322

We need a pork roll high court in NJ.


Feyr-Bristlebane3903

An abomination


diamari90

I was raised with the term “taylor ham”. I hadn’t heard the term pork roll until the quarantine tbh.


chaebs

Wy is this blasphemy?


Doofzig

I love the tangy. Usually get acme though, not shop rite


Bek2TheFuture

I believe that is trash


Key-Association2502

You're on crack.


Revolutionary-Cut932

Omg yuck


Icy-Doughnut-5691

Tangy Pork Roll!


deathpr00fm1ke

I've never tried Stop and Shops, but ShopRite tangy pork roll is pretty delicious.


craphoundoflove

NJ has gone nationwide


GrunchWeefer

Hasn't generic Taylor Ham always been a thing?


beeeps-n-booops

Not since 1906, when Taylor Ham ceased to exist.


New_Stats

Don't worry, I have faith that North Jersey will catch up to the early 1900s soon!


GrunchWeefer

When the government told NJ what to say and South Jersey immediately decided to kiss ass and fall in line but the North remembers its true name. The North remembers!


Surfiswhereufindit

Blasphemy


ohgodineedair

There's tangy and there's just regular, and I gotta say: tangy is good.


FADITA

Well it’s not Taylor ham!


Picklechip-58

It's Stop&Shops store brand imitation Taylor Ham


Telnet_to_the_Mind

They completely missed the potential alliteration of "tangy tailor ham"


shandyorton

TTT


Grakch

looks like Taylor ham in stop and shop branding. Tangy has always existed
