All of this arguing about if it is a pizza, yet the simple truth that it is a salad escapes everyone.

[-] drphungky@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

You're a mad man, and your food classification theories are overwrought AND lead to bad conclusions!

A salad?! Clearly a deep-dish pizza is a form of quiche!

[-] DrRatso@lemmy.ml 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

You are a true scholar of food theory I see.

But alas, you fool, should you thoroughly inspect the manuscripts (specifically Appendix C), you would see that salad theory firmly debunks cuberule for the farce that it is!

[-] drphungky@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

While admittedly mashed potatoes and rice are miscategorized and switched from where they should be, the cube rule is a parsimonious and more accurate model! The footnote misrepresents it as location of carbs, when it is clearly stated as the location of structural starch. When reading it in this manner it is much more clear than any soup-based hyperspace nonsense!

Gentlemen, gentlemen! There's no need to fight!

However, if you would continue, I would be greatly amused.

NOTE: No offense intended with the "gentlemen" line if either of you is not male--I'm just trying to preserve the spirit of this Victorian era-style psuedoscientific slap fight.

[-] DrRatso@lemmy.ml 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

But even so your precious cubic musing doth fall flat when you consider your deep dish quiche permutates quickly into toast the moment it is cut.

Not to mention one might argue it misses the classification entirely, for a slice of deep dish pizza clearly is endowed with two structural carb sides. And should such a classification exist, it would permutate once more should it be eaten outside first.

While the manuscript of elegant salads stays much more robust to perturbations, a deep dish pizza remains firmly a salad untill the last bite.

Is a pinwheel the same as a burrito? Of course not! Is a pepperoni roll a calzone?! Never! Structure matters! If it didn't, why would you be able to order a personal pan pizza or a slice?! Clearly, they are different!

By your logic, I could pick out all of the greens from my salad bowl, hand you a bowl of croutons, and have given you a salad. Preposterous!

[-] wabafee@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Would this be considered a pie? A tomato pie perhaps.

[-] GreatRam@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

It's a pizza pie

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 8 points 7 months ago

Pay no attention to Chicago, we purposely trained them wrong... as a joke.

[-] actionjbone@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

Delicious, delicious casserole

[-] littlebluespark@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Sandwich, per the canonical diagram.

[-] Armetron@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

A yes the only "pizza" you need to worry about drowning in if you ever pass out drunk while eating it

[-] actionjbone@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago

Yes but what a delicious way to drown

It's it bad that I knew what this was before I clicked it?

[-] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

It looks like a bowl of marinara. 2/10.

You’re a sadist for not showing us the cross section

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

The sauce covered a lot of it.

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

It looks delicious af and I'd smash, but why is it called pizza?

[-] distantsounds@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

MFers are out there calling hotdog’s sandwiches and you gotta start this?

Soup bread bowl

[-] Olap@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

So much sauce! Is this normal? When I try Chicago style at home, having never visited, it's like quarter that

Don't forget to have a proper polish with mustard, onions and sport peppers.

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Hell yeah!!!

[-] UsernameIsTooLon@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Who tf cares so much about semantics? It's fucking cheese and tomato sauce, idgaf what it's called, I'm eating it.

[-] Ennon@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Looks like Giordanos, which is fine, but I generally don’t recommend since it’s very saucy and the crust is bleh. Try Lou Malnati’s next time — it’s far superior

[-] droans@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Sure, but Lou Malnati's skimps on the cheese.

It's not Chicago unless you choke on the cheese.

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago

Is this is a real conversation or is this all gay code

[-] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago

Whatever it is it’s not pizza.

[-] NerdyPopRocks@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Lou Malnati’s crust was so yeasty and unpleasant, and super skimpy on cheese when I had it. Extremely not worth the hype.

[-] ares35@kbin.social 2 points 7 months ago

all the locals i know prefer chicago's other pizza, tavern-style thin and crispy. they might have a deep dish once or twice a year, if that.

[-] Thwompthwomp@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

I ate more Costco pizza than deep dish when I lived there.

[-] RinseDrizzle@midwest.social 1 points 6 months ago

Bro Costco had the best deep dish ever. I still think about that shit. There's been a hole in my heart for years.

With that much filling, doesn't the base get soggy? Can you leat a slice like a normal pizza? Ie: held by the crust

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

No, it's cheese on the bottom then meat then more cheese then sauce. It held up pretty good but not nearly as well as a normal slice of pizza. Think more like a sturdy pie crust in how strong it is.
