Your favorite pizza?
Hello my name is Scott and I have a pizza problem.
If the doctor told me I had to give up booze I could do it but pizza? No way, I could eat it every day if need be. I'm lucky to live in a town with a good sized Italian population so I am blessed plenty of good options, some places don't deliver but that is the price you pay for good pizza. As far as I am concerned all the mega-chain delivery pizza is crap, give me real pizza made by real people. My favorite is a good two topping pizza, any more than that and it gets unmanageable and you can't taste anything. My number one choice is probably mushroom/black olive although you can subsisted either of those with onions or fresh garlic... if they don't have fresh garlic then it's not a real pizza place. I can accept sausage on a pizza but only if they make it themselves and it's crumbled on not sliced. The reason I usually don't get much meat on my pizza is because real pizza is made with whole milk mozzarella and will be dripping with grease form that. I love pepperoni but it doesn't like me if you know what I mean. And yes I do anchovies... and I have strayed and tried all the weird Thai chicken, BBQ, Hawaiian, etc. but that's just fu-fu food on a crust... not real pizza. How about you, what's your favorite pizza?

I am spoiled rotten. My wife makes pizza that has no equal; sausage, onion, green/red peppers, olives, mushrooms,you name it.
The secret, so she claims, is every ingredient is cooked prior to being baked into the crust.

I make a pretty mean pizza when I have the time, again I am lucky to have Italian deli's that sell pre-made raw pizza dough.
Had some great pizza in Chicago (not surprising) but it was so rich... piled with cheese, meat, and sauce that it made me physically ill. I asked my co-worker if it gave them a stomach ache and the said yes. We went back and ate there again anyway. I had some ridiculous pizza in Milwaukee... it was like two inches thick... like meat pie... I could only eat one slice!

I am pathetically conservative when it come to pizza. Every single time I go out for pizza, I read the folder of the 50 odd different kinds they serve. Determined to go with with something else, for once, I always order the "Capricciosa". Tomato, cheese, mushrooms and ham.

Best I've had is a so called "Popeye"....no tomato sauce..use pesto instead, all the veggies, lotsa garlic, ground Italian sausage,pile on the fresh spinach, and top with lotsa crumbled Feta Cheese.
