Newspaper has more flavor then provolone! Especially the Chicago Times!
Can you freeze provolone to extend storage?
If you're eating Provolone for less taste, you are missing out. Sharp/picante is the only way to taste Provolone. The smell may repulse you, but the flavor is my favorite cheese.
I have never tried a store bought provolone. I have only had Italian deli provolone and I know it's good if the back of my palate gets itchy, that's my test.
My favorite brand is Member's Mark.
Philly cheese steaks use 'Cheese Whiz'.
I love the North End.
No BelGioioso? My favorite provolone
So this was posted in August 2020, during the current pandemic but no one is wearing a mask or maintaining social distance…was this taped before the pandemic???
At the deli counter you have to order the picante (sharp) provolone – regular provolone is very bland.
Why not test Boars head? That is what we all buy
Who is this dude killing my Franklin Giant Grinder vibe?
Once again, except for Sargento, which is made here, brands we don’t have here in the Midwest.
My favorite provolone is the one that's on sale.
I like this guy reminds me of a cool uncle I have, much love to everyone be safe!❤️
Hi.
She has the best job
Love these taste test. Thanks
Sargento is my fav too
Bridget is so gorgeous.
Tillamook is my favorite provolone cheese. It has a wonderful smoky flavor.
Provolone isn't on philly cheesesteak
For the price, I agree with Bridget, Sargento. But I only use it for French Dips and French Onion Soup, where it's in a supporting role.
Too much facial hair in the studio audience. Yuck.
I prefer the Colby……Jack.
I like provolone over fried chicken filet on a bun, or on top of spaghetti with marinara sauce.
What no Boars Head?
I dont like how american the concept of the show got
The best are from an Italian deli.
I would NOT spend $6.89 for 6oz of sliced provolone….that's rediculous ! Cantankerous in Cincinnati .
I love this segment so much
Beligosi for sure
Reminds me of Paul Simon's song about cheese
'Mama don't take my provolone away…'
I’M FROM PHILLY I OWN 6 CHEESESTEAK SHOPS ALMOST NOBODY EVER ORDERS PROVOLONE!!!!!!!!!! IDIOT!!!! ITS WHITE AMERICAN OR WHIZ WIT! STOP TRYING TO PUT AN AUTHENTIC ETHNIC SPIN ON EVERYTHING!!!!!
I just bought provolone in bulk at Costco Monday. Belgioioso brand and it was good on our sandwiches last night.
Okay I didn't see this in the comments, so here I go. He said provolone is made of cows milk. The one type is made with an enzyme from calf's milk, the more aged funky one from goat.
BUT – they use a vegetable enzyme in these to appeal to vegetarians! WHAT? It is made with cows milk! This is the dumbest comment I have heard on a food show. If you are vegan you aren't going to touch it. If you are a vegetarian that eats dairy you wouldn't care where they get the enzyme! Unless someone has a better explanation for this comment of his. I watch YouTube on Roku and they don't have comments, so I went to the web to check it out.
why do you drink water with a straw? Americans…!
