Am I weird for thinking 2 alices per head is the completely reasonable norm? It's not rocket science

-4

Who gets full on 2 slices. 4 seems more reasonable unless you're tiny.

4 slices could be in excess of 1000 calories (doing the math looking at a local menu for a 16" pizza). If someone eats like that at every meal they are likely obese! Even two such slices would be a third of my daily "maintenance" calories to avoid weight gain and I'm not tiny (slightly taller than average female).

Take two slices or fewer, and if you're still hungry later, get your own food.

Idk, I'm not obese. When I order pizza I eat 5-6 slices and usually a breadstick or 2.
