    I caught some of that Netflix show earlier and while the first pizza shown was WOW, the sushi one?  Nope.

    But, I like how it's all presented.  And you can't go wrong with a true foodie, even if tastes differ.

    So my girlfriend lives at Penn State and is graduating in a couple of months, she already has a job lined up for when she graduates and I’ll probably join her there next year when I graduate. Overall State College has much better food options than my hometown, with one major glaring exception, PIZZA!!! There’s seriously like 70 or 80 pizza places and they’re all mediocre at best.

    HOWEVER I think we may have found the diamond in the rough this week. I did some research on yelp and finally found a place with great reviews, a tiny little shop called Margarita’s Pizzeria, despite its name, they actually make NY style and it is pretty damn good! We will definitely be frequenting this place for the next few years.

    I love the flecks of herbs in the cheese.  Crust looks good too.  Switch out the pepperoni for 'shrooms, and I'm in!

    My favorite pizza place is under new ownership, they are keeping all of the old recipes (thank Christ!) but also introducing some new ones. This buffalo chicken pizza is one of the new ones, I got one today and it’s pretty good! I’m not usually a big fan of buffalo chicken pizza either.

    Man I have really been craving greek style pizza.  Cant get it around here.  Park Lane Pizza in West Hartford, CT has the best!

    Not bad for a $4.99 frozen pizza. Kale, bacon, & ricotta.

    I guess... if you're down, out, and desperate that is.

    A real toss up this one. I think it's in the same league as Scruffy's burnt pizzas.

    I could be wrong though.

  • Mike's "burnt" pizzas are awesome.

    I'll go on record again as stating that frozen pizza has a role in the world of pizza and food

    Fun

    The charred crust is a thing of beauty
    Burnt = no good.
    There is a difference.

    I swear on my kids it wasn’t burnt! Lol. Damn Canadians have no clue what pizza is.

    The reality has set in.

    Hey... it's not as if you haven't presented us with a few beauties. You get a C+ for this semester.

    You are correct. There are times when a frozen pizza is the equivalent of homemade cannelloni with garlic toast.

    Every pizza has its context, that’s the beauty of it. It can be the cheapest, lowest quality frozen garbage you’ve ever eaten, yet still hit the spot in the right context. All the while it can be the greatest, most beautifully made thing you’ve ever eaten, better than any 5-Star snob restaurant. 

    .............unless it’s burnt, there is no place in this world for burnt pie *shakes head at Gruff*

    Correct.

    And we might have to ease off Scruffy for a while. He's really trying in this thread, but he just doesn't really know what a great pizza is. He's got pedigree and looks the part (he really talks the talk), but... I mean... the guy would think a turd on a crusty pita shell is an awesome pizza.

    You’re right. We should really take it easy on that dumbass.

    Lol I feel like a fraud because I don’t think I was even a participant in this thread when that “burnt” pizza was posted, but I couldn’t resist. 

    Also, to reiterate my point about pizza from earlier, here is a great quote from my wise uncle:

    “Pizzas are like blowjobs, some are better than others, but you’ve never had one that was bad.” 

    In this analogy burnt pizza would be comparable to braces. 
  • I love BJs but there is such a thing as a bad one.
    Wish that was not something I knew!

    (And the pizza y'all are saying was burnt as not)

    It is a pretty stellar looking pie if you would just turn that black into a dark brown........but you can’t.
