It is obvious that none of these guys have been east of Pittsburgh for a long while or maybe not at all! After all, people from Philly who go to the west coast have to import things like cheese steaks, hoagies (not to be mistaken for subs!), Tastycakes & pies, pizza and coffee as it is made in the east. Pizza made in the italian pizzerias in Philly or New York come in sizes up to cartwheels with everything you can think of as toppings. One or two of these and you need help to get across the room! Coffee, made properly, is good for a lot of things from staining furniture (color does not come off, no matter what you use), waterproofing basement railroad room walls, or keeping you awake through those long slide sessions that last to dawn!....
So that's why so many easterners are seriously overweight and have digestive problems....
