Despite not categorically hating it myself, I think all of America can agree that St. Louis has the worst style of American pizza. Super-thin crust, provel (provolone-flavored American cheese) instead of real cheese, and laughably overpriced most places.



Yet the Imo's near me gives you the option of ordering it with mozzarella and a thicker crust, and it is somehow worse.

Also if you can't appreciate a good Chicago deep dish, I don't even wanna know you. It's not my favorite pizza or anything, but it's not a casserole anymore than New York pizza is grease-soaked cardboard.

Edit: Why isn't there more of a pizza rivalry between New York and New Haven? It's much closer, and holy poo poo I have never had better apizza anywhere than I've had in New Haven.

New Haven is almost universally considered to have the best pizza in the country among pizza nerds.

New Haven has its own arguably terrible local specialty in the steamed cheeseburger. I honestly really enjoyed mine, but everyone else I went with hated it.

But actual thing crust properly cooked is how pizza is supposed to be and actually really loving good?

I guess, but this is not what you get at the St. Louis-style pizza chains.

I don't know that I've been anywhere else in America where the local cuisine ended up so distinctively wrong as in St. Louis, and the pizza is is the most flagrant example of this. Also one of the defining characteristics of St. Louis barbecue is that you cook the meat in the sauce. And then there's the egg foo yung sandwich on white bread that they named after the wrong city.

I agree. New York pizza is a grease soaked cardboard and Chicago pizza is a casserole.

So they actually do this somewhere other than Ted's in Meriden?

When I was working in Westport one day I took a lunch field trip to Ted's just to see wtf. It was very nice, I'd have it again, in fact I'd really like some of that weird rear end cheese right now. I just can't fathom what kind of goofy game of Martian telephone must have transpired to bring their system about.

I've never actually been to Ted's. I went to some other place I can't remember the name of which had better urbanspoon reviews, or something.

Edit: K. LaMay's, also in Meriden. And yeah, the huge excess of soft melty cheese was definitely more polarizing than the steamed burger itself.
