    Bet that tastes good....but you gotta chuckle when the pepp is all over some spots and none on others.  Happens too often!
    looks damn good.

    as for the pepperoni placement…..slacker “work ethic.”

    Is the costco membership worth it? I have gone off and on over the last 15 years.
    Definitely....for us.  And, when I lived in CA and they sold booze there it was Moreno.
    For me, it is the organic meat.  Can get chicken and bunch of ways....whole birds, breaststroke, drums, wings, thighs, and breasts.  3 packs of each....way (way) cheaper than in the store.  Same thing with beef, and the steaks are much better than anything other than Wegmans or Whole Foods as far as grocery store steaks.  (Butcher still rules)
    Same for frozen fruit and veg.

    For organic stuff the standard grocery has weak options,especially at bulk.  And Costco meat is quality.

    The impulse buys and 3 quart condiment jars are there if you like them.

    I fucking hate going there.  America, on fire.  Obese people pushing huge carts, blocking every other aisle so they can get free sample of food they shouldn't be eating.
    Value for the membership is awesome.

    Oh, and the hot dogs are still a steal on the way out.  $65 bucks is made back on the first trip vs buying what we eat at a normal store. 

    I go once every few months and load the freezer.

    Also, the Motor City Pizza was pretty darn good.  I don't know it to be the best frozen ever but has to be right up there.  I enjoyed eating it.  Wish it came in smaller servings but my son will enjoy leftovers as lunch for a few days.

    k, I've seen people criticize pineapple on a pizza, even some weirdos saying chicken don't belong. But when I see shredded head lettuce, or spinach on a pizza? BARFORAMA

    I can get down with spinach on a white pizza every now and then.

    Agree, spinach on white is a very common thing.
    More common, that I see in NJ, than chicken or pineapple.  
    I like the BBQ chicken pizza, but I know it is a CA invention.  Have had many I've liked.
    I strongly dislike the Hawaiian pizza...pineapple and ham.  
    Others can have it, doesn't bother me.
    I've never had lettuce on an actual pizza.  Wpuld guess it is bad but I don't know.

    never had spinach on pizza but would try it.
    Pineapple on pizza is actually delish.  BBQ chicken pizza is legit, chicken cutlet pizza is double legit.  Salad on pizza is no bueno in my book.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......
  • The JugglerThe Juggler Posts: 49,045
    I've had a cutlet pizza before. Actually I think spinach might've been on that, could've rabe though. Solid.

    I am a NO on BBQ chicken pizza. Buff chicken pizza? Meh... Pineapple? Hell no. 

    Lettuce would go on a taco pizza, which I've only ever had when ordered for me as part of a work lunch or something. It can be good, depending on who makes it.

    I’ve posted chicken Caesar slice in the past… it’s really good

    if you don’t think of it as pizza, u might enjoy… place I go to use focaccia crust, eat with fork n knife and lil dressing

    I’ve had arugula with roast garlic and prosciutto. Good!

    I had a crazy pizza with goat cheese, pork tenderloin, and Caesar salad. It was not bad!

    I was going to say that there are a lot of restaurants around here that have the arugula/prosciutto pizzas. They are delicious.

    I've had "greek style" pizza with spinach on it. Made it wet. didn't like. however, it was a frozen pizza, so likely the issue. Maybe I'll try it again at a restaurant. but I stand by no shredded head lettuce on pizza that I saw earlier.

    This goes back to my taco argument.  If you put Kung Pao Chicken in a tortilla it's not a taco.  It's Kung pao chicken in a tortilla...

    Eating pizzas in other states that aren't known for their pies you will dabble in unconventional toppings. California is where I first ate "Hawaiian pizza".  The toppings made it edible as the whole ensemble that represented a pizza was horrible.

    I love me a greek style pizza. Got a place nearby I always order from when in the mood for that kind .

    I do add peperoni to it though.
