Cicero-T

Chicago's slang term for A-shirt or wife beater. The usually white, cotton-based, men's tank top was named for its popularity in Cicero, the working class suburb of Chicago.

I only date men who wear Cicero-T's.

I GTL-ed so hard yesterday, I ruined my last cicero-t.

the ciero

An uncommon condiment mixture of honey and hot sauce, often for deli sandwiches or wings in upstate NY or Westchester. Nowadays used to describe any unusual or niche ingredient to a dish in deli-enthusiast parlance.

First used and popularized by the eponymous football player Justin Ciero, ca. 2010.
