You spoke, we listened. Here are 10 MORE incredible foods right here in Rockford that you must try! Plus, they are all $10 or less.

Back in February, we put out a list of 15 Must Try Foods in Rockford for $10 or less. We got quite a bit of feedback from the first list, especially questioning the integrity of beer or coffee being considered a food.

If you ask my humble opinion, they absolutely are. With a hectic and busy schedule, sometimes all I have for lunch is a tasty coffee drink. You say tomato, I say tomaahhhhto.

I decided to keep beverages off of this list, but one thing I didn't shy away from were your suggestions. Which ones are you excited to try?

    Special Salad at Primo's Pizza

    1710 Rural St.

    Basically get anything on the menu with the name 'Primo's' or 'Special' in the title. Imagine a salad with pepperoni, ham, green and black olives, tomatoes and more with enough cheese to fill an entire pizza. We are talking an 8 inch layer of cheese on a salad. What makes it better is for just under $10, it's enough salad to feed you for days. YES PLEASE! (Sad face because they aren't open on Monday.)
