      Altoona-style pizza originated at the Altoona Hotel, which was noted as serving “a unique pizza” in 1996 by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.[6] Following the destruction of the hotel in 2013 by fire, other local restaurants began serving Altoona-style pizza.

      The place that created was destroyed by natural disaster and it wasn’t enough to stop the pizza. This is a food that exists in defiance of God

      If they called this anything other than pizza, it’d just be weird quirky regional meme food.

      It’s the fact they’re trying to pass this off as pizza that turns it into an abomination. An affront to all sentient and/or a̴l̵g̴o̸r̸i̵t̶h̷m̸i̸c̴ creators of this universe.

      Sounds like they weren’t able to get their usual motzerella order one day and as a result designed a new pizza around American cheese 😅

    There’s a pizza shop near me that uses a Vegemite and mayonnaise based sauce on its Australian Style pizza.

    Now, this isn’t actually true, I’m just workshopping infohazards that can actually injure pizza fans.

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I stand by Baltimore’s Indian pizza. Excellent pizza, excellent Indian food, somehow even better together.

    But what about toppings on a pizza?

        I seriously doubt it’s the most common pizza sold.

        It’s thin crust nature makes it economical for selling hot slices, but horrible for delivery and for reheating.

        I personally consider New York pizza to be A tier; S tier I reserve for pizza with a slightly thicker, slightly sour, focaccia-like crust, and regardless, the baseline should be B-Tier.

        As much as I love Jon Stewart, NYC has the worst pizza in the country. Don’t get why people love a limp pizza with the wrong ratio of bread/sauce/cheese. I’ve had better school lunch pizza than your average New York slice. Chicago style thin crust or Midwestern thin crust, or neapolitan are all worlds better pizza.

          WTF is “Chicago style thin crust?” Or have you mixed that city up with St. Louis?

          If what you’re looking for in a pizza is bread, sounds like you’d prefer Sicilian.

            Chicago style pizza was originally tavern style thin crust. This deep dish nonsense is a modern thing. And I prefer Neapolitan over Sicilian because thinner crust is usually better.

                Not in taste, not in texture/airiness, not on quality what exactly do you believe is similar? They are both pizza! Just to clarify, I walked into this argument fully aware it is subjective. Maybe I’ve just never had good NY pizza when I’m there. If you let me know your favorite NY pizza you swear by, I’ll give it another shot when I’m there. In all honesty I’ve only had it as a tourist as I have family there. Locals usually have a more developed sense of where the best example of something is.

                  If you’ve got locals there, ask them next time you visit! I couldn’t tell you where I’ve gotten slices there, as it’s been a while, but it’s always been under the guidance of a local.
