there's no excuse for making a bad pizza. It's pizza, it's very hard to do it wrong

Yeah like, just don't call it a pizza and we're good. Call it an "Altooner" or whatever, but don't soil the good reputation of pizza with whatever this creation is.

Misc toppings on bread dough with some kind of cheese is probably thousands of years old.

If memory serves right a round bread with toppings is semi important in the Aeneid. Which assuming it isnt based off of older traditions means its at least 2000 years old, though I dont know if Virgil was pulling from older shit so I cant say for certain. Also I dont know if cheese was in Italy by that point.

The only people who say this are people who have never had good pizza before.

The "iT's PiZzA, sO iT's GoOd" crowd drive me nuts. You would probably put ketchup and Velveeta on a Ritz cracker and call it a pizza. Have some standards, my dude.

I do have standards. It's easy to make good pizza, you'd have to be an idiot with zero culinary skills to mess it up
