History of Philadelphia food
Young Involved Philadelphia is sponsoring a 50-minute walking tour of Reading Terminal Market tomorrow (Saturday) at 3pm. From their website:
Where does Philadelphia Brand Cream Cheese really come from? What food did George Washington love even more than cherries? Where did one-time Philadelphia resident Milton Hershey get the idea for Hershey’s Kisses? Learn the story behind cheesesteaks, hoagies, pretzels and other Philly food favorites, as well as the 113-year history of the Reading Terminal Market during this 50-minute walking tour.
I have to work this weekend, so I can’t go, but it should be informative and delicious.
