It's not? I never knew it was supposed to be a NY thing. I've had it everywhere for ages. -- nm

My understanding is bacon, egg and cheese on a roll is not commonly eaten around the country. It's simple and tasty so it should be. -- nm - Krusty May 3, 09:25 13
- Maybe the roll makes it unique? But literally every fast food place that does any breakfast does this. -- nm - pmb May 3, 09:39 12
  - I'm with you. This doesn't seem earth shattering. It's a breakfast sandwich. -- nm - Volnelk May 3, 09:54 4
    - It's not earth shattering and we don't think it's special. -- (edited) - Krusty May 3, 10:07 3
      - So what you're saying is that it's the roll that's unique? What kind of roll is it? - pmb May 3, 10:22 2
        
        Just a hard roll, sometimes toasted. I think what's different about it for us is not the ingredients but that is a to go sandwich we've all - Krusty May 3, 10:31 1
        
        Ok, the roll may be different. I typically don't see a hard roll (though starbucks has a decent one). More often it's a bagel, english muffin, - pmb May 3, 10:40
  - A bacon and cheese omelette is not special, of course. This is a freshly made to go sandwich eaten daily by many people here. -- (edited) - Krusty May 3, 09:43
  - But that's fast food. Meh -- nm - ty97 May 3, 09:40 5
    - But what I'm saying is that it doesn't seem at all unique. Every place that serves breakfast has something like this. I'm actually not trying to be - pmb May 3, 10:18 3
      - It's not unique, imo. But it doesn't seem like other places eat it much if at all so I guess that makes it unique, in a way. - Krusty May 3, 10:25 2
        
        It’s also an integral part of NYC neighborhood bodega culture which just doesn’t really exist in other places. -- nm - znufrii 🦄 May 3, 10:31 1
        
        Good point. -- nm - Krusty May 3, 10:38
    - Microwaved eggs are gross. -- nm - Krusty May 3, 09:47
