I have a new food love: The Runsa. Also alternately known as Runza, or a bierok. As the picture shows, it is a simple bun filled with beef, onion, cabbage, and cheese. Fairly easy to make, but until you've held one, it is hard to explain the attraction.
The first thing you notice is the denseness. It's a hand-pie, so you can munch it anywhere. It won't drip, and the ingredients are soul-satisfying. Of course, they're great fresh out of the oven, but I had one at room temp several hours later, and I think it was better yet. I understand they freeze well.
There is a Runza franchise out of Nebraska, that has about 70 restaurants. I can see these things selling like hotcakes, if they're done right.
