You have just insulted everyone in Chicago.
I'll do it, Chicago has terrible taste in food. Deep dish is preposterous, Malort is an abomination, and despite how you feel about ketchup, relish should not look like the ooze that creates ninja turtles.
Deep dish is delicious. Lasagna is delicious. Baked ziti is delicious. Calzones are delicious.
Look, you can't go wrong with tomato sauce, cheese, dough, and optional meat. It's all delicious, and playing around with different ratios is still great.
on that note: stromboli is def delicious
It’s a fucking casserole.

I make no comment about the merit of your argument either way, but hot damn you love to see the passion!
I'm a big fan of Detroit style. And I'm aware it's basically focaccia bread with pizza toppings on it.
I've been getting pizza from NJ for ~45 years. I have never seen this crossover.
Folded pizza is real, and it's delicious.
More for me then.
makes eye contact while folding
point droops
moment ruined
That's really the only downside.
This was the most enjoyable read I've had since I joined Lemmy! Took me back to reddit just around the Digg-exodus era. Bravo!
I don't agree with your tastes in food, but I agree, fuck New Jersey.
It's great to have you back!
You bitch about Chicago Pizza? Fucking CHICAGO?!?
Let me introduce you to the abomination I'm trying to eliminate: Quad Cities Pizza
They are called TOPPINGS. toppings, not middleings, for the love of all things just and right.
I loved the Chicago bit!!! Absolutely hilarious! If new york pizza isnt real pizza what is real pizza in your opinion?
Looked up Detroit-style and I like what I am seeing! My favorite pizza place does what they call a sicilian style crust. It's thick and rectangular, with a nice spicy sauce. Fuck I want some pizza now.
But back to my point pretty similar to Detroit style from what I am seeing
A casserole
For anyone who is not from Chicago, Malort is a bitter liquor that tastes like you poured anise through a filter of mud and used motor oil.
It tastes like what male cat pee smells like.
Though to be fair, I don't think Chicago people like it either and only buy it because it's terrible
From what I understand it's what you drink at the family reunion once you run out of cheap beer and need to forget how bad Chicago is.
Malort tastes like a practical joke
This guy gets it. It’s fascinating being judged on what one puts on a hotdog by the dyed relish gang.
Unsurprising from the same people who light train tracks on fire and lean out on glass 400 stories in the air for a thrill.
Chicago bar pizza is a national treasure though
Okay, but to be fair, while it is delicious, it also is not "pizza" (insert bit from Jon Stewart:-).
ITS A CASSEROLE!
Gaba gool!:-P
