The age-old debate with North Jerseyans versus the world. Taylor Ham or Pork Roll? Being Jersey born and raised, here are the top five reasons (in no particular order) why it should be referred to as "Taylor Ham," and why everyone who calls it "Pork Roll" is wrong.

1. It's A Culture Thing. Outsiders Don't Get It.

If you had the privilege of growing up in the great state of New Jersey and more specifically in the north, it has always been and always will be Taylor Ham. Diners and restaurants have it on their menu.

2. It Is A Regional Favorite.

Everyone eats it. EVERYONE! Especially if you need food on the go. People can find this delectable item at convenience stores or fast food establishments. Quick, easy and delicious.

3. Canadian Bacon and Taylor Ham are NOT THE SAME!

Sorry, people of Canada, you almost got it right. It tastes and looks different.

4. Taylor Ham, Not Pork Roll, Belongs On A Bagel.

Taylor Ham, Egg and Cheese people. Get it right.

5. North Jersey says "Taylor Ham" And South Jersey Says "Pork Roll."

South Jersey is just a little bit behind. Don't worry, they'll catch up.

So, people of the world, It is TAYLOR HAM!

Yes, the math major is doing a math-related post. What are the odds? I'll have to calculate it later. Many people have probably learned about the Fibonacci sequence in their high school math classes. However, I thought I would just refresh everyone's memories and show how math can be beautiful and apply to physical things everywhere around us with stunning examples.

1. "Talk about a dream
Try to make it real
You wake up in the night
With a fear so real
Spend your life waiting
For a moment that just don't come
Well don't waste your time waiting." (Badlands)
