What are your weird food rules? (self.asklemmy)

For example:

When you open a fresh jar of peanut butter do you only work through one side until it is completely empty then start on the other side?
Or when you get those shallow tubs of hummus does it have to make it back home undisturbed? Then one of the baggers at the grocery store shoves it sideways into the bag completely ruining the symmetry.

People who don‘t eat the crust shouldn‘t be allowed to eat pizza. Don‘t like the crust? Don‘t eat pizza. Aren‘t hungry enough? Eat it with the crust and pack the rest.

I used to skip the pizza crust until I had a good pizza where the crust was just as good as the toppings.

That's why I think people who don't eat the crust haven't had good pizza.

There is a huge difference in Italian pizza and whatever passes for pizza in some other countries. Anyone who doubts this needs to try an Italian / Sicilian pizza, it's amazing.

The bread is much tastier, the ingredients pop in flavour and there is very little greasyness on the plate after eating it.

Also authentic Napelese (sp?) pizza doesn't taste like you are eating an entire loaf of bread with tomato sauce on top. And none of that gooey cheese dripping grease all over.

I thought we left the insufferable Internet Italians back on reddit.

Depends if the crust is good or not. Sometimes it's just not worth it. There are some pizzas where the actual pizza is amazing and the crust is just boring as hell. Perplexing but I'm not going to force myself to eat something bland just because lol.

I give it to the dogs. They enjoy it.

It's okay, officer. I'm saving it for later.
