Every March 24 America pays tribute to one of the all-time classic sandwiches — the cheesesteak. Much like national liberty itself, the cheesesteak is elegant, necessary, pure, and was born in Philadelphia. The cheesesteak rose from humble beginnings in South Philly to the cultural icon it is today: safely secure in the sandwich hall of fame. “Eat (ahem, read) on to celebrate National Cheesecake Day.” Philadelphia is famous for its cheesesteaks. You don’t need anything else to make a delicious sandwich. Sometimes the simplest ingredients are the best.

March 24 marks National Cheesesteak Day!

We have been unable thus far to find the creator of this national day, but we will be sure to keep you posted.
