ergifruit,

a Domino’s white sauce, spinach, and feta pizza fucking slaps. but Little Caesar’s is cheaper than both, so 🤷🏼

Vode_An,

bless up

Lucidlethargy,

American here, Dominoes is effing disgusting.

Mr_Blott,

Both the same price.

Proper Italian pizza - Just a like a mamma used to make

Dominos - 50% shareholder profit, 50 disappointment

Basil,

I always forget how good a genuine pizza is until I have it again

tacosplease,

I 100% unironically agree with this meme, and I worked in restaurants for years and ran one myself for a while.

Asafum,

They didn’t mention taste so I’ll begrudgingly agree lol

As far as taste though, Authentic messy bush leaf pizza > Domino’s any day lol

Littleborat,

I will doxx you to the mafia!

littlecolt,

Domino’s crust is always covered with a layer of nasty gritty powder, even if I tell them to not season the crust.

Corn flour? Lol

nxdefiant,

it’s the cornmeal they use to keep it from sticking during prep

shiveyarbles,

That’s what they want you to think

littlecolt,

Uh, I’m pretty sure it’s baby powder.

Yeah that’s not seasoning, that’s corneal. Unless you mean the edges? Then that’s their fake parmesan.

BilboBargains,

If only the British were willing to share their culinary secrets and dental technology, many of the world’s problems could be solved decisively.

Vode_An,

culinary secrets

A crybaby yelling at people and offering galaxy brain advice like “limit the size of your menu, it keeps consistency up” and “clean daily”?

dental technology

You’ve seen those haggard chompers, it’s a miracle they don’t fall out or bite themselves comically whilst speaking. Imagine what people who gave a shit could do with that dental necromancy

Siegfried,

This is pathetic

Vode_An,

You should read Alberto Grandi. Broaden those horizons, just like the new world did for Italian food.

rimorso,

What do you mean expensive? A Margherita is usually around 7 euros

I paid 21 USD* (~19 EUR) for a margarita in North-West America yesterday :(

It was pretty good, but it was also small (12"/30cm).

  • that’s before 10% VAT and 15% mandatory tip - you can basically add another 5.
rimorso, (edited )

Wow ok that’s steep (also margarita is Spanish not Italian)

Ha, that was my spellchecker :)

What the fuck

safetygunfatpopcorn,

In Africa?

Cicraft,

Who’s talking about Africa?

rimorso, (edited )

They use euros in Africa? We are talking about Italian pizza so I’m talking about Italy

safetygunfatpopcorn,

You mean frozen pizza then?

agressivelyPassive,

Frozen Pizza is something like 4€ for 3 cheap pizzas or one slightly more fancy pizza. Germany, not Africa.

safetygunfatpopcorn,

No way that’s true

agressivelyPassive, (edited )

shop.rewe.de/p/…/8089206

Three frozen pizzas, 3€.

rimorso,

When I was living in London (pre brexit I don’t know now) I remember paying 6 pounds 50 for a really good napolitan pizza at “Da Michele” while dominoes was like 18 pounds for basically hot garbage

Obi,
@Obi@sopuli.xyz avatar

Yep in Italy is dirt cheap but the further away you go the more the American style stays cheap while the Italian style becomes “gourmet” and gets more expensive.

rimorso,

Wow that sucks

Quaxamilliom,
@Quaxamilliom@hexbear.net avatar

in the US they are bougie as shit and the cheapest are usually $17 with the average around $25. And they are usually much shittier than any you’ll find in Italy.

This reads like such astroturfing advertisement. Also it’s just fucking sad if you really think domino’s is the height of pizza.

Vode_An,

Yes, lemmy is large enough to get astroturfing bots now. Congratulations you are very smart.

rambaroo,

It’s embarrassing how butthurt people are about this post. Euros can’t take a joke.

Vode_An,

I enjoy seeing how many people had an opinion and lacked the words to express it. Cowards, I’ll suck you all off at the same time. Momma didn’t raise no coward and those massive American pizzas trained me for oral stretching.

beefcat,

it is pretty obviously a joke at dominos expense

shiveyarbles,

Big Pizza infiltrating Lemmy… stay alert soldier!

10_0,

Why is normie naked? This feels disturbing, please unpost this

Vode_An,

Reddit taught me that’s the normal way to answer and the driver takes the view in lieu of a tip

MintyAnt,

Seems normal to me, I can’t order Domino’s unless I’m fully nude… phone or on person. Figured we all had that problem!

@magnetosphere@kbin.social avatar

Seeing Dominoes as the standard for American pizza fills me with sadness and shame.

Yes, I know it’s only a shitpost, but still.

Vode_An,

Deep Dish erasure. It’s like our only original pizza contribution.

The perfidious Swede is known for curried bananas on their pizza. It could be worse.

mriormro,
@mriormro@lemmy.world avatar

Well, no. That would be tomatoes. Italians (and the world) have the indigenous peoples of the Americas to thank for that.

Vode_An,

GOOD COMMENT, I’m stealing that for that when I repost this on genocide day to trigger people from New Jersey.

Pizza as a dish is an American dish at its core. Land and credit for Pizza back.

Deep dish is still better than anything Italy ever made, look at the amount of tomato in there. The defining ingredient.

tastysnacks,

Genocide day? What are we doing this year?

tacosplease,

Celebrating with pizza of course

Vode_An,

What holiday do Americans celebrate that might have something to do with making Italian-Americans upset?

I’ll give you a hint, he said this in a letter: “They do not bear arms, and do not know them. They have no iron. Their spears are made of cane. They would make fine slaves. With fifty men we could subjugate them all and make them do whatever we want.”

rgb3x3,

Okay, I’m going to be that guy because I don’t see it being pointed out already.

That’s not actual Italian pizza, it’s still an Americanized version.

Real Italian pizza is so thin you have to eat it with a fork and knife and it’s meant for one person, not to share. The one in the picture is still way too thick to be real Italian.

But real Italian pizza in Italy really is on another level. It’s so god damned good, it makes all pizza in America look like cardboard with sauce.

MajorMajormajormajor,

Exactly, plus it’s usually cheap as hell too, along with being mind blowing-ly good.

Not everyone gets the chance to go to Italy though, so just enjoy the pizza and op should stop gate keeping a delicious food.

Vode_An,

I’m not gatekeeping, I’m countering the papist menace known as “single serve” pizzas.

It’s part of the anti-Freemason plot to prevent us eating communally in order to reduce obesity amongst alter boys.

thank you I needed this laugh

Vode_An,

Glad it caused a laugh.

Holzkohlen,

Thicc pizza is my guilty pleasure

Pyrozo007,

“Real italian pizza is so thin” Yeah that’s just not true, there are many different types of Italian pizza, the most standard of which is like the one pictured. The form varies in popularity by region.

I_am_10_squirrels,

The Napoli pizza portofoglio is the best

shasta,

Yeah I don’t think so. They have different kinds of pizza in Italy. When I visited, I ate both kinds (as pictured and as you described). However, no sign of anything resembling Dominoes or frozen pizzas from the US. They were both delicious, but I prefer the slightly thicker and doughy crust seen in OP’s picture.

Vode_An,

The one on the left was by an Italian in an Italian cultural zone known as new Amsterdam (fucking hipsters changing the names of everything).

rimorso,

I’m Italian, can confirm that that pizza looks like a correct napolitan style pizza

beefcat,

i’ve had real italian pizza, in italy. it was fucking delicious, but it doesn’t make the best pies i’ve had in places like new york or chicago taste like cardboard with sauce. some places in nyc can absolutely go toe-to-toe with italy.

SkySyrup,

it’s funny how seriously people are taking this lol. good shitpost

Vode_An,

I think the downvotes are from how obstinate I’m being. I clearly marked it with a /s
