Especially sucks for people with jaw problems who can't open their mouth that wide. But you're totally wrong about deep dish pizza
Pizza casserole isn't bad but it also isn't pizza really, it's a casserole they pretend is pizza. It's just like those cake doughnuts, they aren't doughnuts, they're batternuts, and that's fine but Dunkin needs to quit lying to everyone.
Its pizza because it takes the form of pizza and is called pizza
Nah that's just it, it's pizza stuff in the form of a casserole, therefore casserole.
Unless you just mean "thick bread crust" then sure but that isn't deep dish, real deep dish is like a bread bowl casserole.
Except it's called pizza and looks like pizza so it's in the form of pizza.
Detroit style deep dish is also deep dish, but yeah not Chicago style deep dish
Yes and "vegan cheese" is cheese? The DPRK is democratic? Chinese Checkers are from China? French Fries are from france? Pencil lead is actually Pb? Koala bears are actually bears? Star fish are fish? Just because some moron who didn't know any better named something inappropriately doesn't mean they're right.
Besides it being called pizza, it actually doesn't look much like real pizza contrary to your claims. I also would be hard pressed to call lunchables pizza "real pizza" despite the visual similarities and name, simply imitating the name or look does not a pizza make.
And eeeehhhhh "deep dish" is Chicago deep dish, detroit pan style is pan style. If you want to say "well a pan is a dish" and be pedantic so you can claim a worse style then fine but you're doing yourself a disservice trying to equate it to the Chicago style just for the name recognition. Detroit doesn't need to ride Chicago's coattails, their pizza is already better, and chicago's isn't even pizza, as I've mentioned.
