There's no such thing as bad pizza as long as you have enough mayo or hotsauce.

Some of the best pizza I've ever had has been in Winnipeg but it wasn't until moving to Winnipeg that I experienced pizza so bad I didn't want to eat it.

Bad pizza definitely does exist.

Pizza Pizza in the GTA is merely mediocre and still better than Pizza Hut (an abomination) or Domino's (an international war crime).

I have to presume that mayo on pizza means kewpie on sushi pizza.

I recall from my time living in Calgary in the 90s the city LOVED deep dish pizza.

Also nachos in ottawa are awful, with the chips just laid flat with salsa just gooped all over them as well as the cheese.

Yeah we're recovering from that thank god. There's a lot of really good thin crust Italian style places around now (also the one good Detroit style pizza turned out to be run by a chud boi, rip ordering from there :smith:

)

But in all seriousness:

Mayo? Right to jail. Right away.

kaom posted:

I kind of conflated two things in my post, that�s on me. But yeah I was hoping for a more coordinated approach.

1) Vaccinations

I think BC has been doing an okay job communicating directly via text/email about these. But it worries me to see experts making different recommendations via news and twitter (and this might be a mistake, but I generally trust if people are posting and discussing a scientist/doctor�s recommendations in this thread without pushback, that it�s reasonably trustworthy). The BCTF has also publicly disagreed with health recommendations via twitter and CBC. I know it�s impossible for everyone to agree on the right approach even if they somehow all agree on what the data is saying, but it would be nice if public health could have at least had major groups like BCTF on board with their messaging.

Then when they explain their reasoning for a less cautious recommendation, they don�t always update it for changing situations. The recommendation against getting a 4th dose in the summer for most was paired with an explanation that they expected increased transmission in the fall based on what we�ve seen previously, so delayed boosters would give the most benefit. But then another wave started in July/August, and they didn�t update that recommendation even though the wave hit early. I find this difficult to understand.

2) BC CDC

This was confusing as hell. The recommendations for someone with COVID at the time my partner had it were to quarantine for 5 days after the fever was gone, after which time you should stop isolating but spend another 5 days masking when going out. The recommendations for caring for someone with COVID were �wear a mask and clean surfaces for 5 days� - zero info about those next five days or when and how we should end isolation indoors from each other. Also generally a lot of emphasis on cleaning surfaces, which I�m not actually sure is that useful (no information about whether it�s airborne, which is why I turned to the WHO looking for that). The US CDC website did have more information, saying that we should continue to mask and isolate from each other indoors for those additional five days, so that�s what we ended up doing.

Basically the �caring for someone with COVID� recommendations cut off too early, they seem to assume that you don�t live together so after the five day quarantine you have no more reasons to interact with the person you�re caring for since they can go out on their own.

Wait a second, is there still an official organization giving advice about cleaning surfaces? That's info from like 2 years ago. I'm pretty sure there's been verrrry few known cases of fomite transmission. There was a big article about this in January 2021!

Panago is like if you decided that Boston Pizza quality was poo poo, but the jacked-up prices were ok, and that you would pay half again more to make it decent-to-good as a sort of consolation prize. Like, its not bad but its also where I would go to feel like food inflation was killing me, back before we had this food inflation.

Most pizza here falls into one of four categories:

aggressively mediocre and looking like you got a lazy 7-year old to slap some poo poo from the fridge on a crap crust and fire it into a damaged oven
more decent than you figured but costs as much as a trip to the Keg
whatever poo poo you got at a 7-11 which ends up better than a chain pizza somehow and still cheaper anyway
some place you never heard of that will send you 20 kilos of pizza in a crate for a decent price and when you finally come out of your pizza coma three weeks later, no sign of the pizza or the place you got it from remains anywhere

I put this in my category 3 there. Somehow also a time and place to shout out the no name four-packs of frozen pizzas, cause that poo poo is like 80% of a normal-rear end frozen pizza in quality for like half the price or less.

Just get one of them delivery bags that are super common now, and strap that on, right? Like, delivery drivers are getting multiple ones that can handle foods and drinks apart from somewhere...

Yeah, a thin, foil bubble wrap lined bag to slip over the box would save a bunch of heat. The drink can be cooled off at home easy enough, but it's probably best to keep the pie hot.

Also Panagos is good but way too pricy for a chain take out out pizza place, even before everything got jacked up price wise.

There is a really good pizza place near me that makes greek style with the crispy edges and thick toppings, it�s great. My kids prefer the other place that makes ones very similar to panago though, I don�t like that style much. Soft rear end crust.

For thin crust me n eds in vancouver area is a pretty good local chain! They have good specials when you dine in too.
