I made pizza from cheap store brought ingredients for the majority of my single adult life, now I have coeliacs, correlation or causation we will never know. Still love it though, it just costs waaay more for GF pizza
I like trying all the different styles and learning about new ones. Neapolitan, Sicilian, Roman, New York, Chicago deep dish, Chicago tavern thin, Detroit, etc. I just had quad cities style for the first time recently.
I think it’s a somewhat overrated food that is essentially unhealthy as it’s cheese on bread and is often oily, greasy or contains toppings you shouldn’t be eating.
I almost never eat pizza and find it insulting when it’s offered at work functions because it’s the lowest effort food next to burgers.
I’ve had to change my favorite pizza now that heartburn and lactose intolerance have become issues. If you ever feel like changing it up, a pizza with oil, mushrooms, sausage, roasted garlic and parmesan & reggiano is excellent, as well as being easy on acid and lactose free! (Aged cheese doesn’t have lactose)
It’s fine. Not the best food ever, not the worst, just fine.
The nice thing about it is its versatility. You can make a basic cheese&bread comfort food, or do multiple layers of a half dozen toppings, or anything in between. You can make it on traditional crust, or naan, or a lengthwise cut bread loaf, or whatever else.
It’s nowhere near my favorite food, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t just crave it every once in a while.
Frozen pizzas are so unsatisfying and I don’t know why. It’s the same freaking cheap ingredients as a pizza chain pizza, like Papa John’s. I’m good at cooking them, y’all, I heat those bad boys on the grill and add my own fancy toppings. But when I look at the frozen pizza that I grilled, my heart longs for more.
