Chicago area, they're only called kaiser rolls. I've never heard of "bulkies" before!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I've never heard "bulkie" before. I've always heard them as kaisers.
Okay, I've never heard them called "bulkie" either.
Is Chicago the only place that calls them kaisers?
Never heard of bulkies until this very day. And my parents even lived in Boston for 2 years ! (long before I was born.)
No, I think Boston is the only place they are called bulkies. I learned kaiser in Philly.
Is Chicago the only place that calls them kaisers?
Well you do have a much bigger German/Austro/Hugarian population than Boston.
Huh. Sandra Oh is so pretty, but that picture is freaking me out.
I've never heard "bulkie" before.
The Shooter Buddy quickly realigns the particles in your beverage by surrounding them with extremely powerful Neodymium (ne-o-dím-e-um) magnets. These are the strongest magnets currently known to man. They’re made from a combination of rare earth elements that create an extremely powerful replica of the Earth’s magnetic field.
In as little as ten seconds, Shooter Buddy restores the natural balance destroyed in the production process, recaptures the fresh taste of nature, and duplicates the smooth mellow flavor generated by years of traditional slow aging.
I know my stepmother used to call them bulkies, in Maine, but I remember even then thinking that was not the only word for them. Perhaps the geographical dividing line is in Connecticut.
I had an experience much like yours today, Nutty, the first time I tried to order a sandwich in Philly. I said 'on a bulkie roll,' they looked at me like I was on crack, and I couldn't figure out how to re-phrase it. That was really the only name I knew. I was like "you know, a regular roll." "OH! A KAISER!" "Um, sure. whatever."
