When I was on a low/no carb diet I would scrape all the toppings off pizza and eat them. I would never just eat pizza crust and I love bread.

For me it’s that I get full on like a single slice, and the overall experience just doesn’t feel like pizza eating, but an entirely different eating exercise altogether.

Since some of us are apparently coming clean here, I’ll admit it too. I’ve put ketchup on my hot dogs. Don’t judge me. I don’t do it all the time now, but I’ve done it.

I’ve been topping hot dogs at home with yellow mustard, pickled onions, and occasionally relish.

I non-ironically love that you can just throw any old glop together and people will defend it endlessly so long as you give it some kind or regional identifier. I want to open a food truck selling ā€œChicago-styleā€ ice cream made entirely of Crisco and Stevia just to watch the sparks fly.

What about St. Louis pizza cut in the style of St. Louis bagels?

The best example of this is cincinnati chili. Absolute trash, like the whole state of Ohio.

Blasphemy to say this, but despite pizza being my favorite food for most of my lifetime like any good American, in recent years I find I don’t enjoy eating it anymore. Too heavy. Too cheesy. Too greasy. Too monotonous.

I refuse to believe that any more than a handful of states actually have a recognizable pizza variant. ā€œOhio-style pizzaā€ is not a thing, no one knows what that is.

New York. Chicago. New Haven. California. Hawaiian maybe. Any others?

Hawaiian pizza isn’t a type of pizza, it’s an assortment of toppings. You might as well put ā€œmeat loversā€ in that list

By that definition we can rule out California-style as well.

Hawaiian is def a recognizable pizza type.

That’d be accurate

Californians live in a form of uncivilized barbarism, with no unique pizza to their name. Like apes in the jungle

I aways though Ohio-Style pizza is when you had to eat the Papa Johns crust dry because someone left a cigarette butt in the dipping sauce

Not a state, but I do love a pie from a Greek pizza joint.

Hawaiian pizza isn’t a regional variant. It was invented in Canada.

It was actually a Greek immigrant inspired by Chinese food.
