They are all hilarious.1) Blood SausageI feel like it’s cheesy and queasy all in one. And call it red sausage, crimson sausage, plasma sausage … anything but “blood” sausage. – Gabriel from Northern Liberties in Philadelphia, PAI don’t know if I agree with Gabriel on the plasma sausage, but blood is a bit off-putting.2) Rocky Mountain OystersThe name feels very dishonest, just come out and say you like sheep testicles. – Steve from Northeast PhillyJust call them balls. We are all adults.3) BologneseBecause if it ain’t Oscar Mayer, you fell me? – Ryan from Cobbs Creek in Philadelphia, PAThis sounds like a sauce, but it’s just a bottom tier meat. It’s the well liquor of lunch protein. But it does sound funny and the spelling makes no sense to an ignorant American.4) AioliThe aioli is dumb stupid. It looks like it should be pronounced “al-oy” but it’s not! [My friend] has to always remind me how to say it! – Ashley from Graduate Hospital in Philadelphia, PAA classic recipe to make the funny food names list: unintuitive spelling.

I stole that for P&S this morning, not gonna lie. – Alex from Magnolia, NJScrapple is a Philly classic. It’s up there with cheesestakes and Tastycackes. The only difference is that it’s a creamy grey meat product. I wonder why it never caught on?9) GyroIt has like 85 different pronunciations, all of which are wrong. – Mike from Fairmount in Philadelphia, PAGood thing this is not a TEDtalk. I would for sure not pronounce “gyro” the right way. I might even switch pronunciations midway through my lecture.10) Sh*t on a ShingleBeing a huge fan of creamed chipped beef, I have been disappointed to see it on a recent breakfast menu as SOS. I do understand the origin of calling it s**t on a shingle… but cR...
