Thats pretty funny, it is definitely a thing I see but almost never order! Pork roll seems either Canadian or, for whatever reason, New Jersey to me. Not that its a bad choice, im just a sausage main.
I am probably just misrembering the movie, but the John Candy movie “Canadian Bacon” , dont they talk about how Americans use the term Canadian bacon when talking about pork rolls?
Ohhhh no, porkroll is it’s own regional thing that’s unique to, I believe, Southeast PA and NJ.
Usually you’ll see Taylor brand. You might also hear people in North Jersey call it Taylor Ham, but that’s dumb lol.
You are correct that Canadian bacon exists, and it’s way different than the bacon in the US, but porkroll is its own thing. I’m honestly not sure why it’s so regional because it’s so good on a breakfast sandwich.
Shit in parts of the South the best fried chicken in town is (well, Aunt Mary Sue’s, but the best fried chicken sold in town is) at the literal Circle K. There’s other restaurants but Josie at the K has that shit on lock, breakfast lunch and dinner.
I thought a Bodega offered breakfast and lunch sandwiches while corner stores outside of NYC don’t offer breakfast items as part of their deli menu.
Philly here. Some corner stores do have breakfast stuff, some dont. Do with that what you will.
Gotta get that porkroll, egg and cheese sandwich… A friend from that area introduced it to me years ago while I was visiting, and I was sold. So good.

Well it shouldn’t seem Canadian, that would be weird lol
