Talk:Pork tenderloin sandwich

Popularity in Illinois
I noticed there are multiple additions and reversions on this page, where "Illinois" is added and removed. Having grown up in downstate Illinois, I know they are indeed popular there. Wanting to affirm this, I had to look no further than the Darcy Maulsby culinary history reference that is already cited in the first paragraph (ISBN 9781439656990). There, she writes: "Sometimes called an 'I state' phenomenon, breaded pork tenderloins tend to be found mainly in midwestern states like Iowa, Illinois and Indiana." Based on this reference, I re-added Illinois to the list (14 June 2020).
 * I'm from Robinson and I can confirm that pork tenderloin sandwiches are popular in downstate Illinois, at least in the parts close to Indiana. --GastonRabbit (talk) 00:53, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

what is this comparison for?
Twice this article says this dish is similar to Wiener schnitzel--except that the ingredients, preparation, presentation, condiments, and cultural context are all...completely different? I didn't edit the page because I must be missing something, but the authors might consider bolstering this claim. Is it because they're both pounded meat?
