About Taylor Pork Roll 6

Pork roll is a processed meat commonly available in New Jersey and neighboring states. It was developed in 1856 by John Taylor of Trenton, and sold as "Taylor's Prepared Ham" until 1906. Though since then food labeling regulations require Taylor and all other manufacturers to label it "pork roll", people in northern New Jersey still call it "Taylor ham". The "Is it pork roll or Taylor ham?" question is a notable element of New Jersey culture, and the division over what name one uses divides the state along roughly north–south geographic lines. John Taylor is credited with creating his secret recipe for the product in 1856. George Washington Case, a farmer and butcher from nearby Belle Mead, created his own recipe for hickory-smoked pork roll in 1870. Case's was reportedly packaged in corn husks. State sandwich Unofficially, many residents of New Jersey regard the "Taylor ham/pork roll, egg, and cheese" as the state sandwich.[9][1] On April 14, 2016, Assemblyman Tim Eustace introduced two bills in the New Jersey State Legislature seeking to make this official, designating it the New Jersey State Sandwich. One bill was for a pork roll and one for Taylor Ham. Neither bill made it out of committee. On May 25, 2023, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy declared the official sandwich of New Jersey to be the "Taylor Swift Ham, Egg, and Cheese" in honor of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour coming to East Rutherford's Metlife Stadium in the following weekend.
