A Po' Boy is a traditional sandwich originating from New Orleans, Louisiana. It typically consists of a crusty French bread filled with various ingredients, most commonly fried seafood like shrimp or oysters, or meats such as roast beef. The sandwich is often dressed with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and mayonnaise, providing a balance of flavors and textures. The name "Po' Boy" is believed to have originated during a streetcar strike in the 1920s when a local restaurant owner offered free sandwiches to striking workers, referring to them as "poor boys." Today, Po' Boys are a beloved part of Cajun and Creole cuisine, enjoyed by locals and visitors alike.
