When it comes to the Long Island food scene, Tim Dillon knows best. The stand-up comedian and podcaster, who was born and raised in Island Park, New York, shared what he believes is the island’s greatest contribution to the American culinary scene while eating spicy wings on “Hot Ones.”
“I would say the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. Two eggs over medium bacon, American cheese, salt, pepper and ketchup on a roll,” Dillon told host Sean Evans. “And you eat that in the morning about 1:30 PM. It coats your stomach and absorbs that anxiety that would either push you to the gym or to a job or into a good relationship or on a jog — that anxiety would push you to become a better person. You actually can absorb all of that with the sandwich and then go right back into bed.”
