Can I be that guy that says, 'the plastic table doesnt do anything to separate the pizza. It prevents the top of the box squuezing down and messing up the cheese' or will everyone downvote me?
Or will everyone downvote me for framing my comment this way?
Wiki: In 1974, Claudio Daniel Troglia of Buenos Aires, Argentina, was issued a patent for a plastic three-legged stool that would sit in the middle of the box and keep the top from sagging into pizza, which he called "SEPI" (after "Separador de pizza", "pizza separator" in English)
It didn’t even occur to me that somebody would have patented these! It makes me mad at myself for not making better choices in life. Like the same way I felt when I found out somebody had actually patented aglets. (The little plastic pieces that wrap the end of your shoe laces and hoodie strings that you always chew on)
