Pizza lovers question: When you visit a pizzeria for 1st time, what is the pizza test to order to see if the quality is good ?

[summer crown]

mmm pizza

[whole flax]

i think the crust

😋

[leaden halo]

Does dominos count as a pizzeria?

[whole flax]

😆

[queen shuttle]

Bruh, had the same question in mind😆

[summer crown]

ngl i like pizza hut's breadsticks

[leaden halo]

The test order would be to order a basic pizza (cheese, tomatoes, other vegetables)

Okie. All this talk about pizzas is making me crave for pizzas

But, my family is doing some religious thingy... So, my parents won't allow me to eat a pizza

[whole flax]

omg they are vegetarians right

[leaden halo]

Yes

[whole flax]

I will order for you too

[leaden halo]

Honestly, I am a non-believer. So, I eat whatever I can

Has anyone ever heard of a role called "food scientist"?

[whole flax]

yep

[leaden halo]

What do they do?

Invent new recipes?

[whole flax]

actually they are more into chemistry i guess

[leaden halo]

😮

[whole flax]

food scientist studies the deterioration and processing of foods by using microbiology, engineering, and chemistry. They determine nutrient levels of food by analyzing its content. They look for new nutritional food sources and investigate avenues for making processed foods taste good, safe, and healthy. They also find the best way to distribute, process, preserve and package the food.

(Thats what I found online)

okay

Pineapple ✌️

[leaden halo]

😮

[leaden halo]

Pineapple on a pizza?

[woven cobalt]

pineapple is valid because it adds sweetness but also pineaple sucks cause it burns ones mouth

[whole flax]

my mouth is fine ngl

so for me, all positives 🤣

[plain crown]

😄 I made a pizza yesterday using a pre-made base from market with loads of cheese..loool
One side of thing is you don't end up spending that much and at the same time also enjoy the whole process of making sauce and cutting veggies...etc..yum

[leaden halo]

😋

[solid stump]

PIZZA. WITH OR WITHOUT PINEAPPLES?!

[woven cobalt]

we got bitoque pizza for lunch today and chef kiss

it’s minced meat, sauce and an fried egg

[leaden halo]

Without

[plain crown]

Pineapple..oml

[empty ridge]

pizza on pineapple!!

[leaden halo]

That's a giant slice of pineapple

Or, are those bite sized pizza pieces?

[whole flax]

bite sized pizza pieces i would think

[dense thunder]

Breakfast pizza!

It’s actually “tsukimi,” or “moon viewing” pizza for the autumn harvest moon festival, but this one ends up being a breakfast pizza. Eggs, bacon, and sausage.

[plain crown]

Never thought about other way round..pizza on pineapple..nice one haha..

[whole flax]

OMG

[dense thunder]

Today’s pizza: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/761595660851347476/887592393719824424/image0.jpg

[leaden halo]

Looks tasty

[plain crown]

Fun prompt
What you all prefer in terms of cheese ?
React
Normal cheese 🍕
Extra cheese 🧀
Depends on the pizza

[dense thunder]

Depends on the pizza! We have a great one here that is extra cheese (no other toppings) with maple syrup, and that's amazing.

[summer crown]

love chicken on pizza

[leaden halo]

Extra cheese 🤤

[agile relic]

Best frozen pizza ?

[leaden halo]

I like the standard frozen pizza with tomatoes, onion, and capsicum

I tried a few other ones too, but they don't really taste good

[plain crown]

Frozen pizza..heard this first time..

[leaden halo]

It's those mostly ready pizzas that you can buy. You just have to heat them for some time and they're ready to eat

[plain crown]

Oh..seems every food item is available in frozen now..hehe...but imo freshly made food is best. 😜

[agile relic]

I meant best brand of frozen pizza Newman's own? Freshchetta etc

[plain crown]

I just checked their website..my bad I didn't get it.
Is it like everything comes in the pizza including toppings in a frozen form & then you just put in microwave ?
forgive me if I am wrong lol I never saw Frozen pizza so kind of new thing to me..😅

whoa!! It's by Paul Newman, the actor..and he gives 100% to charity from the profit!
That's so kind !!!!

Thanks to the invention of pizza & people like Paul, great contribution.

[leaden halo]

The brands are usually different based on the region. Like, I've never heard of those brands which you mentioned

[agile relic]

really? you can go to a whole foods, target, or any supermarket. They sell them including amazon and walmart

[dense thunder]

No whole foods or target in Japan, yo. 😦

[leaden halo]

Yea, but we don't have those stores here. Amazon is basically all the local vendors itself

(I'm from India)

[plain crown]

Lool..that thing you said about Amazon! 😂😂

[leaden halo]

Uh, what's funny? Amazon quite literally just provides an online platform for the local vendors. What's there to laugh?

[plain crown]

Oh sorry I thought you are saying that sarcastically so I was laughing...because I think it is more like amazon is taking over local market here than helping them by selling its own products as alternatives for products sold by local vendors..so it is becoming local vendor itself I meant. Monopoly.
I don't want to discuss about this in this thread but that's what I think nobody is seeing.

[leaden halo]

Anything new?

[dense thunder]

Nope. :((

[plain crown]

blah..couldn't make pizza again..seasonal veggies expensive..🥲

[plain crown]

Anyone tried Pasta on pizza as topping ? 😅

[dense thunder]

I haven’t, but my sister who lives in Chicago keeps showing off this Mac and cheese pizza from a place near her apartment. I’m dying to try it!

[summer crown]

oooh amc and cheese pizza sounds delicious

[dense thunder]

Right??

Four cheeses on half and char-grilled beef on half!

(I gave in and ordered pizza today. I had a coupon, though, so it wasn’t too bad.)

[agile relic]

how was it? I've never had a chicago style pizza

[dense thunder]

I haven't either! Someday.

Chicago is still on the other side of the world from me.

[agile relic]

i feel if i had chi style pizza i would needa knife and fork. I'm used to folding my slices

[dense thunder]

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be eaten with a fork and/or spoon. xD

[plain crown]

Imagine pasta with a hint of smokey flavor as a topping on pizza..yum!

[solid stump]

https://tenor.com/view/macaroni-and-cheese-pizza-pizza-day-delish-delish-gifs-gif-11031133

[dense thunder]

I want it

[leaden halo]

Wow

[plain crown]

wow that cheese string..oml

[leaden halo]

🍕

Reviving chat...

[dense thunder]

A resurrection!

There’s a new pizza at Japan Domino’s that I wanna try in the next couple weeks

I shall have to report back

[leaden halo]

What's the name?

Or, ingredients?

[dense thunder]

It’s part of a series of pizzas that are based on specialties from different parts of Japan, but the others don’t really appeal to me.

[leaden halo]

Oof, I'm a vegetarian... So, no idea what that would even taste like

[dense thunder]

The others are scallops, wasabi with beef, and corn with edamame

[leaden halo]

What is Edamame?

[dense thunder]

Boiled(?) soybeans in their shells (but unshelled on the pizza, ofc)

[leaden halo]

Oh

Sounds good

[dense thunder]

I like them, but probably not on pizza

And I’m definitely not a fan of corn on pizza

[leaden halo]

WHAAAA?

[leaden halo]

We are talking about that golden yellow thing that's also known as "Maize", right?

[dense thunder]

Yeah, but the sweet canned kind

[leaden halo]

😮

Maybe canned ones taste different

[dense thunder]

Sure do

On the cob is my favorite

But canned is meh

[leaden halo]

I love corn on pizza

Though I love cheese and tomato more, lol

[leaden halo]

Ah, the fresh one?

[dense thunder]

Yes

[leaden halo]

I don't think I've ever had canned corn

[dense thunder]

Whole cob boiled and buttered

[leaden halo]

Yea, that's tasty

Maybe because Japan imports a lot of corn?

[dense thunder]

Dunno. They just have a bad habit of putting corn on pizzas

[leaden halo]

Well, Japan imports approx $3.2B corn every year

[dense thunder]

Dang

[leaden halo]

Japan only produces around 171 tons of corn

Per year

[dense thunder]

That I believe

[leaden halo]

India produces 26M tons... That's why I have never had canned corn before, lol

[dense thunder]

India produces way more rice than Japan, too

[leaden halo]

India's second largest producer of rice with 119M tons after China (147M)

Japan is at 7.61M tons

[dense thunder]

Yup, consistently 9th or 10th

We did a quiz question on it last week in class

The kids were shocked lol

[leaden halo]

Oh

Japan is known for exporting electronics and metals

[leaden halo]

Hey,
Did you get a chance to try it out yet?

[dense thunder]

No ;-; It didn’t count for my coupon, so now I may never

40 USD is too much to spend on a single pizza lmao

[leaden halo]

Damn

[leaden halo]

None of the pizzas are that expensive here

Unless of course, you count US-style super long pizzas

[dense thunder]

Pizza is very pricy in Japan

We had $5 large pizzas in the US, but even the smaller ones here are $20. Luckily, you can almost always use a coupon to get it down to like $12-20 (M-L), but not for that special one :((

[leaden halo]

Wow, $5 for large pizzas?

I mean, even after currency conversion, it is cheaper than what we get here

It costs around ~$7 for a 14-inch pizza here

But, if you manage to get an offer, you could get two for less than ~$8

[dense thunder]

oooh

yeah, only the plain ones, and they're not lovely xD

[leaden halo]

What about the not-so-plain ones?

[dense thunder]

pricier, up to 15 or so. real good ones are even more, but they're pretty rare

[leaden halo]

How about the basic veggie ones like tomato, onion, and corn?

[dense thunder]

veggie ones are pricy in the states, and in japan

no corn on pizza in the US that I know of, though

[leaden halo]

😮

[leaden halo]

What do vegetarians eat then?

[dense thunder]

expensive pizza
