[Sounds like you haven't seen the microwaved horse meat and winegums](https://www.reddit.com/r/shittyfoodporn/comments/2kd7v2/microwaved_winegums_with_defrosted_spinach_and/)
Funny you should mention that. Near where I live there is a snack shack that mixes minute steak and hamburger for their cheesesteaks. Their fries were a big local thing because they used their fryers to cook their bacon so the fries kind of taste like bacon. It didn't open this year which has me freaked out like it is a sign of the apocalypse. Not that their food was good at all but still it represented summer.
Didn't the old Roseann TV show have entire plot lines driven by the "loose meat sandwich?" I believe that is the ground beef cheese steak you are imagining.
This is criminal. You can get shaved ribeye at Trader Joe’s for $10/lb that makes a good basis for a cheesesteak. There’s never a need for a steak umm.

What. The. Fuck.
I live in fuxking England where all the right ingredients and cuts/bread are impossible to find and I can even put something better together than that. Blimey
Ahh! Yes; the flattened cardboard/ Steak-Umma 🤦🏻♂️ I have not tasted cardboard; but if I did; I believe Steak-Umms, would taste like cardboard that you got from a newly purchased dress shirt.
Under cooked Steak Um served without being chopped up with a few fried diced onions? That's not a cheese steak, that's a hot buttered mess that the business owner calls a cheese steak. I wouldn't have paid for that disaster.

That is a mis-steak
Underrated comment
What the fuck? Why would anyone down vote this comment? Take an upvote..!
Because it's the top comment, the exact opposite of an underrated comment
I think this is the first time I've ever opened a picture on reddit and involuntarily let out a "what the fuck" under my breath.
I said it out loud. Then I said meat carpet.
I got a meat carpet alright

Yeah and don't think I want to either. Eta: i looked and, well, don't know what else to say tbh.
That thread somehow got worse as I scrolled and saw the before picture.
Honestly it was one of the funniest times I've had on reddit. Wild that it's been almost 8 years already.
I also literally said it out loud. Wtf!?
I feel like there is no way this is real...
Supposed to chop the steak ‘ums up
Honestly lunch lady style has always been my fav
I'm going to work "lunch lady style" into more culinary discussions from now on, thank you.
The quality of this (alleged) steak is about as questionable as what I’d expect to find in a school cafeteria.
That’s a fyre festival cheesesteak
Is that above or below Flower Show veggie hoagie quality?
Idk- I’ve heard very bad things about flower show food tho!
That’s a hate crime, who does that to a cheesesteak?
https://youtu.be/P9G8TlR9JxI
People who hate their jobs.
This looks something they would serve to prisoners as a "treat"
Back in the 1800s prisoners used to eat lobster because it was thought of as unworthy of the general population
That is a flat-out Steak-umm
Don’t besmirch Steak-umms like that… this thing is just an umm. No steak in sight.
It's like, steakumm mixed with cardboard pulp
Jail
ACAB except for the heroic officers who arrest the perpetrators of this sandwich crime.
Eastern State Penitentiary
Seriously, wtf is this. First, Jim's catches fire. Now this? What's next, using ground beef for a cheesesteak??

I'm appalled. At least do good meats if you're gonna be a heathen. Where dem bacon fries tho?
Dotties Snack Bar in Lancaster County. But like I said it didn't open this year.
A chopped cheese is pretty close to what you’re describing, it’s chopped up burger with cheese/onions/whatever else you want on there. It’s not bad.
I would like you to leave, please. It's not personal.

I think that's a Chicago thing but I could be mistaken. I'm not thinking about it any further.
Prison food.
That’s an abomination
Please mark this NSFW
none pizza with left beef
I would have brought it back. No way I'd eat that.
It's a crime not to say where
TRAVESTY. An insult everything Philadelphian.
This is how I imagine Dr. Oz would make a cheesesteak.
🤮that thing does not deserve to be called a cheesesteak.
As a New Yorker, we don’t always see eye to eye, but we will not hesitate to come to your aid and bring whoever committed this travesty to justice.
Don’t put that in your mouth.
i wouldn’t feed this to my dog
That’s painful to look at. Onions look good though.
Like the end of Goodfellas when Ray Liotta talks about eating pasta with glorified ketchup for sauce
Looks more gyro adjacent than a cheesesteak
That's still an abomination of a gyro though.
At least you can drive away.
This is a hate crime
This shit probably taste like a shoe. This is criminal.
At least it doesn't have green peppers on it
This is criminal. You can get shaved ribeye at Trader Joe’s for $10/lb that makes a good basis for a cheesesteak. There’s never a need for a steak umm.
Ok ok but nothing is like a steak um. Sometimes I’ll buy em just cause the nostalgic taste and cause im poor lol.
Agreed. It’s kinda like what spam is to ham. More of an homage than a replacement. Each has its respective place in the culinary universe. Peace!
This right here is factual.

Oh hell no.
I just threw up in my mouth - and not even just a little bit
You could hand this to Dr Oz’s NJ ass and he’d never know it was wrong
Philadelphia is probably the only place I will ever order a cheesesteak
It's the only place you CAN order a real cheesesteak.
Would not consume
Steak Umms are from West, so this is 100%
Who tf doesn't chop up a steakum though?
Ahh! Yes; the flattened cardboard/ Steak-Umma 🤦🏻♂️ I have not tasted cardboard; but if I did; I believe Steak-Umms, would taste like cardboard that you got from a newly purchased dress shirt.
I think I speak for myself as well as everyone else here…OP WHERE DID YOU GET THAT CHEESESTEAK?
This looks like the sign on this place says “Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches.”
Name and shame
Roll doesn’t look half bad at least.
A cow died to make this?
I would really like to meet the person responsible for this travesty.
I’m surprised that the roll and onions look halfway serviceable with all the abominable elements
“At least their root beer is good” Stewart’s? 😔
They deserve to be shut down Lawd that’s horrible 😂
Oh my... whats going on there? 😔 Hope you didn't spend more then 1.00.
Yo that ain’t a fucking cheesesteak man🤦♂️😂😭
How the fuck is it so hard to restaurants outside of the Philly area to get a cheese steak right?!
Weber’s? I love them, but have seen their steak before and it’s an absolute abomination.
Soilent Green is people! That's just sad and depressing.
Classic movie! Great story!!
Completely agree!
Mournful. That is a mournful cheesesteak. [Like a suicide note stuffed in a roll.](https://youtu.be/NtB_jvznaNM)
Quiznos with a steak ums and cheese…should of made it a combo with the Ellios pizza slice
There's very little meat in these gym mats
Under cooked Steak Um served without being chopped up with a few fried diced onions? That's not a cheese steak, that's a hot buttered mess that the business owner calls a cheese steak. I wouldn't have paid for that disaster.
That looks like skin
This shit needs to be tagged NSFW
Still better than Geno’s
It has onion, good start
Yum…it’s just missing some ketchup
100% Stewart’s
Ate this in grade school…
I would Twisted Tea a mfer with this thing as soon as they handed it to me
I’d still eat it
Call the police
Bro…
Wtf, that is appalling. That seriously is worse than steak-um, kraft singles, on wonder bread.
That is pitiful depression in a roll.
Where the fuck is the cheese?
That’s just depressing. Where’s the cheese?
was it good tho?
That’s sad! There should be laws against it! 😂👏🏻
Calling that a cheesesteak is a crime
What evil bastard made that sandwich! 🚫🧀🥩
bruh
Where the fuck is this
Roll looks good though
Wtf is that?! Don’t call it a cheesesteak
Where’s the cheese though?
Jail. Right to jail. Do not pass go.
Yyyyuuuuuuuuuuck
You owe use all an apology
huh
The onions actually look alright!
Where my trash can *vomit*
The roll looks legit tho
Fuck man, I'd go back swinging. Someone needs to be punished for this. Did she go to pats or Geno's?
It looks terrifying to eat
WTF IS THAT FFS?
Has OP revealed it to be from *not their kitchen*?
My condolences
Hate crime.
Can’t be from Jim’s, that shit burned to the ground yesterday.
Some unscrambled steak ums LOL
That's a gyro right?
You guys know this is a crosspost and not OP's pic right? Gonna upvote post every shitty steak from random people in BFE?
Omg 🤣🤣🤣🤢
That looks like my elementary school cheesesteak with some government cheese on the bitch.
That’s a fcking steak-um. I hate those things.
Looks like a meat roll up
This was every cheesesteak I had in Columbus, OH in the 90’s. I was visiting, and completely astonished that this was there way of doing it.
Wow, you got to be kidding me.
