Chicago’s Great Food Debate
You say deep dish. I say thin crust. You say PBR. I say Old Style. You say soda. I say @#$!%!
Nothing hits close to home–or close to the stomach–quite like a rip-snorting argument over Chicago food and how we eat it. So RedEye decided to dig in to a few great food debates…
…For this debate RedEye turned to Chicago beer expert Bob Skilnik, author of “Beer: A History of Brewing in Chicago.” Old Style became the beer darling of Chicago in the 1970s, thanks to quality problems at Schlitz and an Anheuser-Busch bottlers strike, Skilnik said.
