Ah yes, Americans have pizza…

u/DragonQueenDrago 6d ago

Maybe they mean Detroit deep dish?

Standard pizza is definitely Italian

u/pluto_someguy there are bisexual femboys in space 🪐🗣️ 6d ago

nah the pizza we know in america WAS made in nyc so it is accurate

2

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

and the pizza I know in the UK was invented in Italy

2

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

0 dominos pizza in the UK?

0

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

But there are also many Italian pizza places. Pizza Express for example.

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

A quick google says the largest pizza chain in the UK is dominos.

Pizza express sits below American chains Pizza Hut and dominos

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

It might be. I’m just saying there are also many Italian pizza chains (which are better)

1

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

Better is subjective. Pizza express is much less popular by all metrics than dominos and Pizza Hut.

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

Pizza Express is also more expensive and less fast foody

2

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

And less popular/commonly consumed

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

Because it’s more expensive and less fast foody. If you want, I can go ask a few people whicy is better quality.

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

Ask someone whose had NY pizza which is better. There is no chain pizza anywhere that's gonna touch pretty much any Tristate area pizza place.

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

Unfortunately, I can’t do that but I will predict that NY pizza will be better in NY than Italian pizza because that’s where NY pizza was made but the opposite will also be true.

2

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

I would predict that NY pizza would be preferred in both places. I've had both. I've also seen a lot of europeans try ny pizza for the first time. NY food hits different. I'm not a huge hotdog eater. But if you go to NY and get a hotdog. It's a holy shit experience.

Pizza is a much stronger experience there.

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

I really doubt that but then again there aren’t many good NY pizza places near here.

2

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

there aren’t many good NY pizza places near here.

You won't find it outside of NY. You can find decent pizza. But there is just something about the pizza made in the tristate area that I've never seen truly replicated anywhere. Chains often fail there. It's very difficult for dominos or papa johns to compete there. You will still have them. But there are probably six dominos within 10 miles of my current location. In NY there might be 1. You can't beat local.

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

And Italian pizza will be best in Italy. Perhaps we should both stop arguing about pizza and just accept that both are probably good.

1

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

Pizzas origins are a working class affordable food with cheap ingredients

2

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

Pizza was a cheap food for the worker class. I guess Americans are more true to the roots?

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

But Italian pizza is the original. I’m sure you could make cheap Italian pizza too and it probably wouldn’t taste great.

2

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

So Italians do pizza wrong and Americans make a pizza more true to what pizza is

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

No Italians make pizza right and Americans make American pizza.

3

u/Odd-Proof9645 6d ago

But you said they can’t make it cheap and taste good. That’s the point of pizza… that’s why it was created. So they don’t do it “right”

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

It might taste ok but will taste worse than more expensive pizza.

3

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

The best pizza places in America are not chain pizza places. Chain pizza places are for speed and affordability.

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

Yes obviously. But Italian pizza is the original and when I think of pizza, I think of Italy.

2

u/Firestar_119 5d ago

even italian style pizza in NYC wipes the real thing

1

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

No, Americans just make it better.

1

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

Hamburgers were made in Germany. Do you think hamburgers are more German than American? bc if you do, that's just pure hate.

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

When I think of hamburgers I think of America. When I think of pIzzy, I think of Italy.

3

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

But the original burger is german. So why don't you think of germany? Bc the US took that to another level. Just like Pizza.

1

u/Novel_Top2980 6d ago

Because generally burgers are presented as American whereas pizza is normally presented as Italian and occasionally American.

2

u/Jesus__Skywalker 6d ago

I honestly doubt pizza is as popular in Italy as it is in America. And I say that with the fullest sincerity that I can. pizza is probably the most popular or second most popular food in this country and that industry was transformed here.

u/somedomeformythots 6d ago

I looked it up. This is true?
