    Seriously, I think we know why the middle of the country carries more weight than the coasts....
    Wait a second...it says serves one?!  I should split this with my wife?  Maybe get an appetizer as well?
    It only serves one person from the Midwest.
    I ate the personal one -- and I should have stopped at half of it. 
    Split the pie, take the cannoli.

    That's their signature pizza. One of my fav foods in the whole world. You can get much larger sizes.

    I'm thinking of getting this one:
    The Malnati Chicago Classic™ (nutrition)

    Made with Lou's lean sausage, some extra cheese and vine-ripened tomato sauce on Buttercrust.™ It's authentic Chicago!

    • Personal (serves 1) $10.25
    That's what I always get.  It's called the Chicago Classic for a reason - it is THE definitive Chicago deep dish pie.  Ignore F Me :lol: ... a personal isn't big enough for two unless both people are super light eaters (and will certainly not feed 3 unless we're talking about toddlers). I have no problem downing a whole personal, and I'm by no means a big dude nor do I have a huge appetite. And I'm from the east coast.  Just skip any salads or appetizers (except a pint, of course), go straight for the pie, and you'll be golden.

    Brett was probably drinking some sort of vodka concoction and couldn’t fit any more of the pie in is stomach.

    I know it is not pizza but fresh sea scallops (literally off a commercial boat this morning) over whole wheat spaghetti. Parsley to garnish. Oh baby!

    Scallops look great -- and fresh are soooo good.

    Wheat pasta is sacrilege.  :lol:

    Know what's really good, is that Catelli Smart pasta. It is semolina pasta with oat hull fiber and inulin, tastes and feels exactly the same as the regular kind, but is much more nutritious, like the whole wheat kind. I feel like they shouldn't even make the regular kind at all when the Smart kind is possible. Why have one unhealthy option, and an otherwise identical healthier option? Why give people the choice when all other things are equal?

    This is the kind of pasta we buy, it's great and we both find that we aren't bloated aftercare done eating

    Nice! “2 slices and you want to puke,” as in your extremely full from the deliciousness you just experienced? Or “2 slices and you want to puke” as in you thought it was gross? Lol
