Make sure Nancy takes you to get a cheesesteak and some Scrapple. If you are gonna be in Philly, you gotta eat them. Not in the same meal though.

You'll have to explain what that is. I tend to stick to food I know as I have a lot of allergies

Cheesesteak is beef and cheese. Or you could get chicken cheesesteak. And Scrapple is hard to explain. It is everything that shouldnt be used for food.
Scrapple is typically made of hog offal, such as the head, heart, liver, and other scraps, which are boiled with any bones attached (often the entire head), to make a broth. Once cooked, bones and fat are discarded, the meat is reserved, and (dry) cornmeal is boiled in the broth to make a mush. The meat, finely minced, is returned, and seasonings, typically sage, thyme, savory, and others are added. The mush is cast into loaves and allowed to cool thoroughly until gelled. The proportions and seasoning are very much a matter of the region and the cook's taste.
Its good.

That does not seem like something to ingest. What about chicken fried steak or steak fried chicken?
I don't get it

Guess you'll have to stick to the Philly cheesesteak, then.
I do eat pork, but I don't think I could eat Scrapple.

hearing Scrapple reminds me of Snapple

I think there is a slight difference though!

Apparently Philly Cheese steaks are good. But I'm a weirdo and don't like cheese.
I'm trying to think of super awesome North American food to check out... Well of course Maple Syrup but you wouldn't be able to bring any home cause It could be a bomb. But If you want some seriously awesome stuff I could ship a can down for your stay (I think- I'd have to check the export laws but I think so)
