The Pizza Thread

I think this was discussed a long time ago, but what’s the difference between a calzone and Stromboli? I’m not familiar with Stromboli, but that looks like a calzone to me. Maybe the same?

You know I am not sure, I ll have to get back to you on that one.  I know the Stromboli I picked up had pepperoni, mozzarella and ricotta in it.  Hmmmmmm

I’ll look it up too. Google works miracles. Now that I think of it, I feel like we were talking about differences of calzones and panzerottis last time. So Stromboli is a whole new twist to the pizza thread!

I just looked at the menu and it definitely doesn’t clear anything up lol.

Lol. Well that answers everything! Clear as mud!

Stromboli has sauce in it
Calzone doesn't - sauce is a dip

Because Scruffy orders his pizza from the Chinese food restaurant. Pictures don’t tell the whole story: his pizzas look like Camaros, but they’ve got Pinto engines.

Flying home to New York for a week. I'm going to eat a lot of pizza. Pics to follow.

Then headed to New Orleans for a weekend. Pics in the Food thread to follow.

Found this out: calzone has ricotta in it, Stromboli does not.

Don't they do a real fantastic job of being obnoxious sports fans? Don't they got that going for them at least?

Well this explains why I never heard of a Stromboli. It’s some made up shit from Philly trying to be passed off as a calzone!

Stromboli = rolled and sometimes has sesame seeds or other toppings
Calzone = half moon shaped
Ingredients are limitless for both.

I'm gonna have to try it but I honestly don't think anybody makes it that way around here.
