Wheel of Fortune contestant gave a terrible answer to a food-related puzzle

Move over “right in the butt.”

Step this way, “Treat yourself a round of sausage.”

Because we’ve got a brand new bad guess on a Wheel of Fortune puzzle. Most of the letters were filled in on this: NE_  _OR_  _HEESE_A_E. The clue is Food and Drink, and right away, I knew it.

Did you?

It’s NEW YORK CHEESECAKE. But this poor contestant will now be remembered for guessing “NEW YORK CHEESTEAK.” Actually, it was more like “NEW. YORK. CHEESE … STEAK?”

Oof. Here’s that moment that has people cringing at the guess. Hey, it happens! And now I’m hungry for a cheesesteak.
