My friends family runs a little pizza place in Naples, woodfired, hole in the wall. Everything is bought fresh at the markets, or grown. They do alright. I know 5 Italian chefs who would beat you to death for saying Pizza is american. They have been cooking Pizza in Naples for about 300 years, at least.

My Q-Face posted:Pizza in Italy is pretty fantastic, but it's not actually Italian, it's reverse imported from the U.S. Also it's more of an appetizer than a main meal, so idiots maybe? What the gently caress are you talking about? Napoli claims to be the birthplace of pizza, and I believe them. Totally different to anything in the US. And they serve very thin 15 -20 inch pizzas by default, definitely a main course, if a rather informal one.

Italian pizza is NOT your traditional American Pizza (which is generally what you think of when you think pizza) by a long shot, and is in fact not nearly as good as literally everything else in Northern or Southern Italian cuisine. Going to Italy for the Pizza is like coming to America for the Grilled Cheese Sandwiches - aka loving retarded.

I suppose he could be correct if you restrict your definition of pizza to that fat greasy topping layered obscenity that deluded people refer to as pizza in America, and specifically exclude actual pizza.

Like would you whine that cave paintings are the REAL way to make art since they did it in such a screwed up and bad way a long time ago? Come on. Call Dominoes.

It's a bit like when British people put together a concoction of minced beef, onions, mushrooms and cumin and attempt to call it chilli. They can call it whatever they like, but it isn't chilli. The crap served as pizza in most of the world isn't pizza. There are fairly specific rules that define what a pizza is, and there is an organization that certifies establishments that meet them. Proper pizzas are vastly superior to horrible greasy concoctions with 15 bazillion toppings. Personally, I don't visit any establishment that doesn't adhere to those regulations exactly.

Man, gently caress franchise pizza joints and gently caress "artisanal" pizzas. If it doesn't come from a Mom and Pop hole in the wall with dead flies in the fluorescents and grease on the floor I don't even wanna hear about it.

I'm sure whoever invented the abacus was a swell guy, that doesn't mean he gets to take credit for my iPhone. Welcome to the future, Lord Bude. It's full of fat people.

The Flash - 8PM Tuesday - The great Pizza Debate. I'm liking the show so far, would catching up on The Arrow increase my enjoyment, diminish it, or not affect it in the least?

djwetmouse posted:The Flash - 8PM Tuesday - The great Pizza Debate. It probably wouldn't affect your enjoyment of this show too much, but Arrow is a drat good show on its own merits. It's definitely worth a watch; just keep in mind that it has a weak opening and you'll be fine.

As an authority on this subject I agree Italian pizza sucks. However that's not exactly common knowledge and a lot of people think it must be great in Italy, so my ruling is the scene is Fine.

But what's the best pizza to eat while watching The Flash?

Pepperoni, Black Olives and Jalpenos.

The correct answer is you don't eat any pizza at all. Because you're fasting.

Can't the flash run on water? So technically he could spend a few hours and go to Italy to get his pizza. And that's how you kill a derail.

I just realized that Central City/Keystone City can't be St. Louis surrogates like I'd always thought, because they eat their pizza in triangles like human beings.

All the irl cities exist in the DCU along with the fake cities. Metropolis isn't a stand in for NYC; NYC also exists.
