“Papa” out as Papa Johns CEO

[jerryskids 7,204]

I'm with nobody; NY pizza is the most overrated food evah. Oooh, super thin crust with almost nothing on it, it's all in the water$#@! No it's not, it sucks. Well, maybe doesn't suck, but don't act like it is better than other pizza. It is the Radiohead of food.

[Bier Meister 1,778]

For that tier of pizza:

 

pizza hut

dominos (used to be the worst- got better about 5 years ago)

papa johns

 

i enjoy NY pizza, but it is not the end game for pizza. love what i have had in italy, france, wood fired, and chicago. also enjoy the funky combos from california (thai, bbq chicken, tandori, jerk, greek, clam, pesto, etc)

Agreed. I grew up with two styles:

1. Pizza Hut, particularly their pan pizza.

2. My cousin's take out pizza place, which was thin but not quite NY thin, and used white cheddar instead of mozzarella. I worked there on Wednesdays and made my own perfect pizza for dinner.

Chicago Pizza kicks nyc pizzas ass.

 

I like a good slice of ny pizza though. Fold it over. Good stuff.

That thing they make in Chicago is called a tomato pie.

It reminds me more is Sicilian pizza. Tomato pie is awesome but its definitely not pizza.

[penultimatestraw 473]

If you're pizza doesn't resemble a flapjack breast that's been runover by a tractor, it sucks.

 

I guess that's people who like shitty new york pizza

NY style pizza sux.

Papa John's is mediocre.

Chicago style pizza is best - garlic, spinach, sun dried tomatoes +/- artichoke.

[Gladiators 2,035]

I have a Chicago style near my house that is awesome. I go with supreme. Delicious

To clarify, NY pizza sucks and Papa Johns is mediocre. I have that right?

I don’t care for either, but even if NY style tastes better it is so flimsy it is a PITA to eat.

This and this

A good slice holds its integrity if you fold it. Ive never had any problem eating NY style.

[shotsup 836]

You are a homo ghey phag if you think NY pizza is a PITA to eat.

[MTSkiBum 1,626]

NY style, California style, Chicago style, all great.

 

Papa John's, Pizza hut, dominos, all decent chain food when compared to other chain restaurants that cost the same per serving.

Zackly.

 

There isnt a single chain that can hold a candle to a decent NY slice.

 

Chicago style pizza is also awesome, but its really not in the same category.

Not a deep dish fan. We have a ton of great pizza places here and many of the best are home in the wall type spots.

[IGotWorms 4,063]

The last few times Ive tried Pizza Hut it gave me explosive diarrhea

[IGotWorms 4,063]

And ny pizza is way better than Chicago. Hate the deep dish stuff, just shove a bunch of dough in your mouf

Good deep dish crust isn't any thicker than regular pizza; the toppings create the depth.

Pizza Hut is by far the worst chain, with PJ and Dominos similar quality IMO.

Id have Pizza Hut dead last. Papa johns a little better but not much. And dominos highest. When they redid their menu a few years back, it got a lot better.

 

Unfortunately Pizza Hut is the only chain we have here in my new city. We used to order papa johns at the last place, but there isnt one here. I refuse to pay Pizza Hut prices for their garbage.

 

Ive found a couple of good expat owned local places, but they are far away. One, NYPD Pizza, is especially good. Whenever I am in that part of town I hit them up.

Is he going to still appear in those Gawd awful commercials ?

Because so far he still is.

[Voltaire 5,534]

the worst pizza chains in the US >>> the best fine dining restaurants in China.

Really? I have heard about some excellent restaurants in Hong Kong and Beijing

They must serve Italian food.

Voltaire lives in the Chinese equivalent of bumfock Mississippi.

Thats not true at all, in the big cities at least.

 

Here in shenzhen, I could show you three mom and pop expat run pizza places better than the chains. Im sure there are more, I just havent fully explored the city.

 

There are top notch Italian places. Good Mexican places. Good burger places.

 

And good Chinese food is very good. Sure, theres a lot of garbage too. But at least it costs next to nothing.

[wiffleball 4,797]

Had something called neapolitan pizza a long while back. I can't even describe it. It's sort of like somebody intended to try to make pizza but kept getting distracted. Freaking awful.

 

Still, the whole thing about New York Pizza is just played out and retarded these days. You can find good pizza in Gillette Wyoming and crap Pizza in the heart of Brooklyn. There are very few truly regional foods anymore.

now can they get rid of peyton?

[Hardcore troubadour 16,063]

If they get rid of Peyton there will be no white males left in commercials. He's the last one.

Peyton has moved on to those gawd awful Nationwide commercials.

The only chain pizza Ive got in recent memory is Pizza Hut. There just is zero reason to get chain pizza. It all sucks bad.

 

I have never had Poppa John's tho.

[Kanil 521]

New york style pizza is trash.

 

Ooh a super thin piece of dough with almost nothing on it. Omg so good omg.

 

I guess that's my imitation of people who think that trash is good.

 

This was a good post. NY style pizza is just not that good.

 

-Chicago style >>>>>>>> NY style

 

-Pizza Hut >Dominoes>Papa Johns

 

That said, the only pizza place that delivers to work is PJs so when I buy pizza for my team, it's what I get. It's barely edible.

[NorthernVike 2,101]

I like to eat NY pizza with a fork and knife just to pixx off the locals.

[MDC 8,121]

Maybe its because I am in the Northeast, but NY style pizza is just pizza to me. Unless youre specifically ordering something like Sicilian or deep dish, you get your basic thin crust style. So its odd to hear people say NY style pizza is trash. What other kind of pizza are you eating?

[listen2me 23 1,969]

Id rather have NYC than Chicago all day long.

 

But where I live in the middle we do a regular sort of thin slice that still can fold. Seems reasonable.

[wiffleball 4,797]

Pizza. Steak. Sex.

 

Even when it's bad, it's not that bad.

 

You really have to fuuck it up to make it legitimately bad as in inedible.

[TimmySmith 2,783]

Pizza is hands food, therefore Chicago Style Pizza..................................sucks.
