The Pizza Thread

Whenever I'm at Joe's or Di Fara, I think, "If the pizza is good enough, it doesn't need toppings."

 

And I lean toward that take, too, many times.

The one thing I'm beginning to see is that the sharp provolone and the olive oil create that tangy aspect that lifts a pizza.

 

Terrible pizza toppings are infinitely less annoying than people who complain about terrible pizza toppings they don’t even eat.

 

In other words, hold the anchovies, but I'll eat them first so I can say it.

 

Olives are delightful in a martini, bloody mary, or in a salad. Not on A FUCKING PIZZA.

 

Funny thing is, I like anchovies in a Caesar salad, but can't abide them on a pizza.

 

Bell pepper = Fruit
Bell pepper on pizza = delicious
ergo fruit on pizza = delicious

 

I denounce every damn thing about this post.

 

I'll reserve judgment, but Chicago seems to love its giardiniera.

The Best Pizza Topping That You’ve Probably Never Heard About

 

Nyet.

 

Said it before and I'll say it again. When folks can agree on pizza toppings. Then - and only then - can world peace be achieved.
You Can NOT order a satisfactory pizza with 3 or more people. Can NOT be done.

 

My college background may be showing, but any seed-bearing plant structure is technically a "fruit." Yes, that includes tomatoes and peppers.
