If you have never had one, you aren’t missing anything. It’s just nostalgia for those of us who have eaten them since we were kids. As an adult, it’s impossible not to notice that it’s just compression meat that may be from a pig or cow.
Yep, I tried one last year and it was nothing special. It's fine as a once a year novelty, but that's about it. A pulled pork sandwich from any decent BBQ joint is 1000% better.
