I love most of them. And NY pizza always has a special place in my heart.

But I have been converted to Detroit style. Those crispy edges with the caramelized cheese are amazing

NY is god tier. Chicago is trash tier.

I haven't had every style listed so perhaps i should get on that. But if I aint gotta fold my slice like a fucking origami crane to eat it, that shit aint poppin' IMO

Chicago pizza is good but it definitely does not satisfy my pizza itch when I want pizza

It's like its own separate thing. Like pizza pie casserole

correct. chicago pizza is not pizza so much as a pie constructed with pizza ingredients

Today I had a person tell me their favorite pizza is frozen pizza so they can make their thin crust crunchy.

Wtf who likes burnt frozen pizza the best

also common in MA is bar pizza https://www.bonappetit.com/entertaining-style/trends-news/article/bar-pizza (south shore vs the greek pizza on the north shore)

Still not great but much better than greek pizza but it's a good drunk pizza

Detroit pizza is my favorite. Probably cause I live so close to there so it's been perfected.

I'm inclined to say New York, Chicago, and California are generally safe bets, but it really just depends on the specific pizza itself, the style generally doesnt inherently make it better or worse, though some of those more obscure ones sound a bit gross.
Quad City style looks like it could be good befuddlement

Also tbh up until recently I didn't think Detroit style was a real thing, I only heard of it in reference to Little Caesars goowan

Like cookies, I will not discriminate.

All pizza is welcome in and around my mouth.

the only varieties i've tried are new york (of course), deep dish, californian, hawaiian, generic american flyover style (chain pizza like pizza hut &c.), and most recently, detroit

Quote from: Magyarorszag on August 03, 2018, 11:11:56 AMi think i need to take a trip to little shitter's one of these days, it's been a while

i actually did take a trip to little shitter's today for probably the first time in over ten years

i tried the detroit pupperoni """deep dish""", which is pretty good but not really """deep dish""" so much as thicc soft crust

i also tried the cheesy bread which is mediocre but edible

the czicken was good, but not $6-for-such-a-tiny-serving good

the cinnamon bites are also good

all in all 7/10 would probably visit again but also probably spend less than $29 lol

ultimately i hope to try as many of the regional pizzas as i can, but new york style remains by far and away the best
