Will it be cheesesteaks or cheesecakes?

The U.S. senators representing the states of Pennsylvania and New York are betting local delicacies in a friendly wager over the World Series.

If the Yankees win, Sens. Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand will get a supply of Philadelphia cheesesteaks.

If the Philadelphia Phillies win, Sens. Arlen Specter and Robert Casey will get some cheesecakes from Junior's.

There are higher stakes to another food bet. If the Yankees lose, New York City's Hunts Point Terminal Market will donate a truckload of local produce to a Philadelphia food bank. If the Phillies lose, the Philadelphia Regional Produce Market will send food to a New York City food bank.

Both teams begin their World Series showdown on Wednesday night.
