I don't understand why food derails are so consistent. And half the time they start with "I don't want to start a derail but..." Like that fools anybody, you loving liar.

Uppa posted:It’s because of kids. I’ve never seen an adult order a cheese pizza for themselves, but when kids are involved, cheese pizza is the only thing you can reliably count on them eating. In New York City, the home of pizza (just ask them), the archetypical pizza is not even "a pizza", but a single giant floppy slice from a heatlamp case where it's been sitting all day. You order it for like a dollar and they stick it in the oven for two minutes and then you take your "pizza" walking down the street, folding it in half so you can eat it one-handed. You do not order toppings on the heatlamp pizza. Toppings are apparently just there to dress up the display case, where certain display pizzas are half-gone or reassembled from several showcase styles they evidently ordered from a catalog, and they are invariably gross and sad. Flabby gray canned mushrooms, sad tasteless pepperoni, stale penne pasta (!!!), wilted broccoli. If you order a slice with toppings it interferes with your ability to carry it and eat it one-handed because they will roll off the slice and disappear down your sleeve. One time a coworker in Manhattan (a 20-something rich boy dude with a topknot and hipster beard) got hungry mid-morning and called out to order TWO LARGE CHEESE PIES to be delivered to the office, just for him. He sat at his desk at 11:30 eating his giant floppy cheese slices and whimpering with tears basically streaming down his cheeks about how it's "so fuckin good" and then he discovered he was full and put 1.75 LARGE CHEESE PIES into the office fridge, there to sit for weeks. I do not have particularly good associations with cheese slices or cheese slice eaters

Floppy cheese slices are pretty good if you're burnt out on supreme ever topping pizzas or frozen pizzas. But chicago deep dish pizza never gets old...you only die trying to eat more than you can handle.

I was in NYC this year for a convention (for work, not anime titties) and I stopped at a pizza place, standing room only, long line. $3 cash only, two slices and a can of soda. It was loving good.

I like both NY style and Chicago style pizza. My favorite is Detroit style though. I live in Chicago. This has caused arguments up to and including physical altercations.

Detroit style pizza: 3 dollars for a slice, a can of coke, and burnt down crackhouse. Chicago style is best, we are fighting now!

Sir Not Appearing posted:Unless the Italian pizza industry has changed a lot since 1987, if you asked for anything other than cheese, pepperoni or margherita they gave you the "you dumb, fat American" - look even if it predated the obesity epidemic by a couple decades. I don't know if you're talking about italian-american pizza industry, or bona fide italian pizza industry, but I can tell you, that by far the worst and most bizarre pizza toppings I've ever seen were in Italy, namely in Rome and around it. There is no purism there, anything goes on a pizza. And it's not catering to foreigners or anything, because it's crap no sane person would come up with. Fries and egpplant? Why not!

Went to a pizza shop in Rome, friend got a pizza with shredded chicken on it. Took one bite, his face turned sour and he said, "Oh god its tuna." and threw it in the trash can as we walked outside. Next day, we walk past the same pizza shop, see a guy exit with a slice of pizza, takes a bite, "gently caress its tuna!." throws it in the same bin.

It’s important to remember that pizza began as a peasant food and it was hardly well-regarded until the 20th century. The Neapolitan purist movement is pretty modern.

When my mom visited Italy she was astounded that they put whole bell peppers on their pizzas. When she came back she got a pizza stone & made some pretty good homemade 'zas. Broke: folding your NY-style pizza bilaterally to eat it one-handed. Woke: rolling your pizza tip-to-crust and eating it like a pizza cigar.

Dollar pizza is the best NYC pizza. In my area in Brooklyn at pizza by the slice places pepperoni isn't as popular as cheese, but they have a lot of other options I hadn't seen before moving here. Stranger things like buffalo/bbq chicken are pretty popular, and other crust styles like grandma/grandpa pizza. The one I go to does a spinach pizza that is like an spinach dip base topped with cheese that is ridiculously good.

Deep-fried pizza is available in many chip shops in Scotland.[1][2] The basis is an inexpensive fresh or frozen oven-ready pizza consisting of a thick parbaked base with toppings already applied. This is then fried until crisp. The dish can be served as a "pizza supper" (with chips) or single (without chips), in whole and half pizza portions. The dish may be served with salt and vinegar, or with "salt and sauce" (a mixture of brown sauce and vinegar) bitterandtwisted has a new favorite as of 16:29 on Mar 17, 2020 |

I am a chaotic evil person. I eat sweet pizzas and order hearty pancakes at the pancake restaurant. Edit: Uh, are pancake restaurants even an international thing? They're not uncommon in the Netherlands. Great for families with young children and birthday parties.
