Yay. Chili flakes are great, too.

BTW, the worst pizza I ever had was served in Italy. Absolutely drowned in oil.

Maybe the oily pizzas are more pizzas than the ones we eat out of Italy

Depends if it’s good pizza or not. If you’re talking a sauce heavy Italian/Boston style slice the Tabasco is a travesty… if it’s some shitty NY slice the load that sucker up.

Ranch it up! It’s 8:40 bro!!

As someone who grew up in the NYC pizza area, but has lived in the Boston area for a few decades, this is incomprehesible to me. While there is some very good pizza to be had in the boston area, it is from very individual places, whose pizzas do not constitute any cohesive boston style (and some of which are NY style).

What I would call the closest thing to a regional style is the pizza from sub / pizza shops, usually run by greeks and so sometimes called greek pizza, which tends to be cheese heavy (and i’m not sure what the mix is, definitely not just mozerella/parm), and lacking in the sauce department, to my taste.

I’m sure there is bad NY pizza, but good NY pizza has a tastier sauce, thin crust, and a good cheese balance. And unless things have gone downhill since my last visit (which is certainly possible) even your average NY pizza is pretty decent.

FYI it should be “yea or nay”.

warbond ,

Yay or dismay

MrScottyTay ,

That doesn’t rhyme though. Maybe “yea and neh” would be better? :p

@pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Yea is pronounced the same as yay.

MrScottyTay ,

To me it’s just a truncated “yeah”, that’s how I’ve always seen it

Depends on the pizza. If you are eating a traditional pizza just like mamma mia made back in the old country, skip the Tabasco.

If you’re eating greasy sloppy pizza from a dirty little place called, “Joe’s” load up that Tabasco and the chili flakes, and add some of that artificial Parmesan powder that comes in little packets!

I haven’t been arrested by Italian food cops yet so I’d say it’s fine. Do whatever you want to food that makes it taste good to you because taste is a very subjective thing.

TBF, not only would that same Italian person you envision also die every time a “pizza” is made, (IRL, they’re far hardier as a people) but I personally reached a similar point in my impression of “proper” sushi. 🤷🏽‍♂️ For decades now, I’ve looked down on cream cheese, et al, used as ingredients in rolls of all kinds. That eventually evolved into other disdainful opinions on adjacent foods’ contents, but I’ve fairly recently discovered a simple fact: in its culture of origin, sushi is known to on occasion include ice cream as an ingredient.

Therefore? Such quixotic prescriptionism is worse than useless: it restricts access to experiences based on fabricated and imaginary rules (or, face the piercing judgment of… actually no one at all).

Fuck what “people” say. Engage with your wife’s view, and maybe even join her in exploring what other curious ways one can enjoy weird shit. 🫀🖖🏽

Yup, there’s three rules about food:

  1. Don’t eat what will kill you.
  2. Eat stuff that tastes good.
  3. Eat stuff that’s good for you.

As long as you never break rule one and only occasionally break rules 2 and 3, you’ll have a good time.

Irf23 ,

Not for me but can’t hate on it. People like some weird shit. Do what makes you happy, as long as it doesn’t infringe on others.

CmdrShepard ,

I’m not a fan of Tabasco so I wholeheartedly say “nay.” If we’re talking classic Sriracha or something less vinegary, then by all means “yea”.

Wizard_Pope ,
@Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world avatar

Sriracha just doesn’t mesh well with pizza taste wise.

BenLeMan ,

Wrong.

Says you.

folkrav ,

Man, I dip it in ketchup like a literal toddler.

Ziggurat ,

What about spicy oil? It’s at least how I see it served, but may be there it even more traditional

Lighttrails ,

Here’s my take: most countries outside of the US are lacking when it comes to condiments and sauces. It’s your food, dress it how you wish. One of my recent favorites for pizza is Bachan’s Original Japanese Bbq sauce

tacotroubles ,

The opinions of imaginary and very close-minded italians do not concern me and should not bother you as well.

All Italians are already dead after Brazilians decided that having sushi or French fries on a pizza was ok.

tigeruppercut ,

They died way before that when japan started putting ketchup on pasta

Food is food. Do what you want to do to your food because you are eating it. Other people aren’t eating it so they don’t get a say. If most people saw what the original pizzas were they wouldn’t recognize them and some wouldn’t like them, including modern Italians.

Tabasco, in my opinion, is just like eating a pizza with peppers or a bunch of pepper flakes on it, or as I sometimes do, ground cayenne pepper.

I don’t like to put hot sauce on my pizza when it’s still warm but cold pizza with hot sauce is pretty damn good
