We assume the people turning up their noses at Cheez Whiz only use real Switzerland cheese (must come from the country), not another cheeselike product made elsewhere? 
I actually like a well made mushroom swiss burger, but not Swiss etc. on a classic ribeye cheesesteak.

I want good quality bread, decent quality steak, cheese wiz and lots of BBQ sauce with a side of really good fries. I can do provolone in a pinch though.
Favorite spot for it in Phila: Jim's Steaks

Sorry, but I don't believe that a cheesesteak has to be limited to having cheep, crappy cheese on it. Just because a bunch of dive restaurants catering to low-status Phillyites, dominate the field is no reason to limit the cheesesteak from evolving to the gourmet dish it could be when graced with superior cheese.
