Can you pleas stop calling it a pizza‽ I'm sure it's tasty and all but it's not a pizza. Words have a meaning, or what's next? We gonna call this a cheeseburger?

words also change meaning, and we changed the shit out of that particular word. Come at us, chitown is always down for a food battle

Words do change meaning but in this instance they shouldn't. Pizza is actively being used for it's original meaning. Chicago deep dish pizza and the fact locust haven't ravaged the city to destruction is proof that there is no god. There is no reason to expand the definition to include that cold disappointing pastaless casserole.

It's tough being at the top, but you get used to it, take that boston

Nah thanks. I'll just stay here and enjoy my cheese burger.

wtf are those gummy worm looking things on the roast beef?

It's jelly, made of stock and the juices arising while roasting the meat. Kind of like a savoury jello.

No, I don't know some random pizza from a random hotel in a random town on the other end of the world. But looking at the pictures, I'd say that, albeit not looking very appetizing, it definitely looks much more pizza-like than that Chicago style cheesecake.

But if you ever come to visit, I can recommend a lovely little Italian osteria in the original Altona where you can get great authentic Italian pizza.

Counter question: What's pizza about it?
