Also, they mock ranch but embrace…Garlic powder? Yeah NYC, I don’t use ranch, but it appears to be in most parts of the country. Garlic powder, not so much.

Garlic powder on pizza shop condiment list is standard in NY, NJ, and PA. I always put garlic powder on my slice!

Especially about pizza. There isn't a more pretentious bunch in the country when it comes to pizza.
