Yeah, I hear you regarding the "bowl fad." I believe it's for those who don't eat bread. I can understand that for a Wawa hoagie as, IMO, their rolls have never been acceptable to me since they left a well known Italian roll vendor to making them in store. I prefer to make Italian hoagies at home with local Italian baked bread, seasoned oil, provolone cheese, pepper ham or prosciutto, capicola, genoa salami or soppressata salami.
But I may try the Wawa mac and cheese bowl with seasoned beef on top.
