Soul Dentist posted:It's not just pizza. Connecticut is the loving worst. A whole state that's a NIMBY bedroom community for bridge-and-tunnel Yankees fans and mouth breathing Disney cruise enthusiasts. It's just Ohio with insurance conglomerates instead of manufacturing. Connecticut is the home of 80s summer camp movie villains. Fix your potholes, your racism and your poo poo-fired soot pizza before you come after any state except (maybe) Alabama or Mississippi. Wait until you hear that part of Ohio used to belong to Connecticut. Also Connecticut isn't just urban decay and racism, it's also rural and racist East of the river!

Just realized I may have some content for this thread. My neighbor baked me a tomato pie. From what I can gather it has tomatoes, onions, cheese, and crust - so it's kind of a pizza? I did not expect to like it, and honestly feel kind of confused while eating it, but as a picky eater I keep finishing the slices.

That style of tomato pie is good, yeah. I dunno why anyone would have a problem with it on principle.

Deep dish pizza doesn't have soggy crust. It's hard/flaky and buttery. You should be able to pick up the slice with your hand for a short while if you really wanted before the cheese decides to escape over the side, and even then it should be a nice, slow escape. It's best to eat with a fork and knife, though.

I haven't had them in a decade, I think they're fairly locally distributed to states around their Chicago restaurant location (which I moved away from). Just a really high quality, hefty pizza with tons of cheese, I really miss them.

Pie is good, savory pie is good. I have my own idea that pizza is actually not a pie because it has a very different form factor.Failson posted:Is there such a thing as a "good" frozen pizza? I've had a decent amount that I like. Open Nature and Signature Select I've had the most success with, Red Baron is hit and miss. It's been a while since I shopped around with other pizza brands, but I feel like being cheap is important because otherwise you're better just ordering, and the more expensive brands didn't seem to to correlate to quality anyways last I tried. Thinner crust I think also does better than whatever trick that frozen pizza likes to try with rising crusts. Less worry about it ending up uncooked.

I really like Dr. Oetker's fancy-pants thin crusts in American groceries but they've gotten way more expensive lately.

the Oetker selection around here is pretty tame and hella tasty, like a really loaded and nice mushroom pie or a pepperoni/pesto thing - none of the mind-numbing eye-clawing insanity that makes it to these threads. Checking online tho, looks like prices may have gone back down a bit so I guess I'm having a frozen pizza goon lunch soon

the year before last costco had these thin crust frozen pizzas from italy with three types of salami and mushrooms, minimal cheese, and delicious sauce, and they were the best frozen pizzas i ever had. every single one of the cashiers i took them to said something to the effect of "holy poo poo, have you tried these, they rule!" and they were right. then they were gone, and have never returned.

I ate a Dr. Oekter's pepperoni & pesto a few weeks a go, it was pretty nice. Salty in the good way. The thing was greasy as gently caress though, when I cut it into slices pools of grease immediately formed on the plate. I tried to be careful but still ended up with my hands and face covered in grease, and had to wash myself afterwards. Would do it again when drunk tho.

As any connoisseur would know, Dr. O has half a dozen different lines of za so you have to be more specific. It has been a while but I only recall ever seeing the Restaurante line in the states. That's kind of their bottom-tier za but still better, or at least lighter than a lot of frozen za.

Last year when I was in the throes of depression I ate a lot of lovely McCain and Dr. Oetker frozen 'zas and every time I'd hate myself a bit more for it. There are smaller Mom & Pop places that do frozen pizzas and they usually sell them through local breweries (something else I was also hitting up a lot through delivery services last year), they're always much better than the grocery store brands.Ratios and Tendency posted:Quiche Lorraine is buttery pastry, bacon, eggs, cheese and onion. It's unimpeachable. To each their own, but I don't gently caress with quiche. I'd much rather have those ingredients in a soft omelette than bake it in a pastry.

Y'all getting pizza n scared of carbs might as well gently caress off. Eating a largely carb thing n worrying about carbs is indicative that you care but not enough to do poo poo. Work a physical job or pick up some metal or jog or wank a lot if you're so scared of carbs. Let people that care about flavour enjoy a poutine pizza or dipping bread sticks(skinny pizzas) in marinara and mash.

It does bring to mind a take I once read that pepperoni is a terrible topping for pizza because it's just salt and fat on something that's already salty and fatty.
