Pictured is the router which sent the 1st internet connection from NYC to Tokyo. These were sold out of a basement office of a home in Rahway NJ. It's signed by everyone who worked for Cisco Systems in 1989. It was given to my dad when he retired in 1999 for his work in establishing the internet.Submitted by TriggerTough t3_10kdpgl in newjersey

You misspelled “Taylor Ham”

Taylor Ham, this is the way !

“Taylor” is the BRAND. “Pork roll” is the actual product.
Its pork roll.
You don’t say your having a bowl of General Mills for breakfast, you say your having Frosted Flakes, because thats the product and GM is the brand.
Also note, you don’t see the words “Taylor Ham” next to eachother, anywhere on the Taylor brand packaging.
Also Also note, the store brands will call it, for example, “Shoprite Pork Roll” because Taylor is a competing brand, not the actual product, which is pork roll.
Are we clear? This really can’t be that difficult to grasp.

I’d agree with you, but then we’d both be wrong.
Long live Taylor Ham

With absolutely no counter argument. Enjoy being wrong, and have a great day.

It was originally Taylor's Ham until government regulators made him change it. Not a fan of cowering to the government so it'll always be Taylor Ham for me. ✊🏼
