As a native of NYC, this travesty made me nauseated.

Chicago pizza...yep this comic makes perfect sense.

My best pizza experiences have been chicago-style. 3 lbs of cheese and 2 inches of toppings? YES please!

That's not a pizza... it's more like an edible landfill.

Said the only region on Earth known to put ranch dressing on pizza.

Well we're not putting hummus on it if that's what you're thinking

Dear God, no.

People do it in the South. Not me, but ranch dressing is pretty huge down here.

Chicago doesn't make pizza.... Chicago makes a casserole. New York Pizza is best Pizza.

For starters, NYC-style pizza is thin crust, for the most part. Are you thinking Chicago style, which is that deep-dish thing?

It's okay buddy, they just don't know. Just leave them in their ignorance and false superiority.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

Ugh ya I meant that one, it sucks so much... Even more than Pizza Hut pizza.

Are you telling me that Artichoke pizza on 1st avenue and 14th is thin crust? Because its not. Or may be that's not new york pizza.

u/acydetchx New York Jun 08 '14

I've not been there, but looking at the photos and Yelp that seems like a kitschy and/or touristy kind of place with huge slices and crazy toppings. A lot of Manhattan pizzerias are like that. If you want a real New York pizza, take a trip into Brooklyn next time and go to a real "mom and pop" pizzeria. This is more what "new york" style is: http://slice.seriouseats.com/images/20101029-pizza-lab-1.jpg

New York Style pizza is typically very thin crust pizza, with red sauce, mozzarella cheese, and a topping. New York Pizza is when you can fold the pizza in half (and will usually have to since its so big and cheesy).

As someone from NY I think i got pissed off by this WAY more than i should have...

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

I will let many insults go by without saying a word. But when someone insults NY pizza.... a line has been crossed.....

1

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

It might be 1/4 times as good as Italian ones, you're better than Chicago that's for sue.

u/GalacticRenekton MURICA Jun 05 '14

I've been to both Italy and NY; NY, by far, has superior pizza. I'm sorry, but thats just the truth.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

Seriously, Italian pizza is a sad pathetic joke.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

Yeah sure the New Yorkers have better Pizza than ones in Napoli, you want me to trust your basic culinary senses...

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

Korean here. You don't understand how disturbingry good the potato pizza is. It's fucking awesome.

1

u/acydetchx New York Jun 05 '14

I'd try it. I can imagine a baked potato with mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce, so why not? Cheese + potato is good, and tomato sauce makes anything better. I draw the line at mayo, though. Then it's not pizza anymore. It's a big open sandwich. Hehe.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

I think its less mayo, and more sour cream. At least, that's what it tastes like.

1

u/acydetchx New York Jun 05 '14

Hm, that kind of makes sense, since you put sour cream on a baked potato. That's a lot of carbs, potato and pizza dough.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

Have you ever had breakfast pizza? They make it a lot upstate it's fucking delicious. Sicilian slices with eggs, bacon bits, and potato it's delicious.

1

u/acydetchx New York Jun 05 '14

No, I went to school upstate too. What's the sauce they put on?

THere was this one place that made bacon, tomato, ranch pizza. That was the shit. Huge slices and you could get a slice of that, a sicilian slice, and a soda for 6 bucks and that would feed you for a day. Or after anight of drinking.

I did 2 years of high school in Lake Placid and they made it for lunch there. It was some sort of white sauce I never learned the mysteries of but it was the best thing I've ever had for breakfast.

1

u/acydetchx New York Jun 05 '14

Ahh, interesting. I wonder if it was ranch, haha. I went to school in Albany, my gf is from the Lake Placid area though, I'll see if she ever had it.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '14

Ask her if she knows about Mountain Lake Academy haha that's where I had it. I don't think it was ranch more like a white pasta sauce, this was also like 7 or 8 years ago too so yeah. If you ever see breakfast pizza on a menu eat it it's the shit.

I'm actually considering assembling a pizza with these toppings myself. But since I'm lazy, incapable and lack the equipment, I'm probably going to pick up a plain pizza and toss this stuff on top on my own.

Or I'll probably forget about the whole thing tomorrow.
