Italian or American pizza?

Probably this:

Loauauauahmaouauuauujooaaoun (aka Lahmacun) is not a pizza.

I like every kind of pizza. But i like the german Flammenkuchen most.

Practically every Pizzeria is run by Turks in Sweden (probably an exaggeration but come on). Lots of Kebab here.

But basically Italian-style pizza I guess.

This is what we get as "Turkish Pizza" in germany:

Brownie dessert Pizza is best.


on a serious note though I do love a good grandma pizza.

So I see a lot of you assume Generic to go Pizza is American pizza and only artisanal Italian pizza is Italian. There is trash pizza in both places, but also great pizza. I love them both. The US though has the best pizza market hands down. All styles and types and the best pizza's I've eaten have been in the US. And I've been to Italy and had Pizza in a few different cities. Some of it great, some of it utter trash.

I also enjoy the pictures of Supreme Pizza next to a Margarita pizza to explain the difference. Not even close. The rule of 3 works best with pizza, more than 3 toppings is too much and causes a weird cook.

Worst pizza topping is chicken. Get that bone dry recooked chicken the fuck out of here.

Looks like you never ate a italien pizza then.

probably not. Not really a fan of mom and pop spots. I rather stick to Little Caesars/Dominos/Pizza Hut. Love me some dough and cheese with a sprinkle of sauce

I have found over the years I just really like pizza. Sure, different kinds will be better or worse but as far as Italian or American. I can really enjoy both so it doesn't matter.

Just bring on the pizza. I enjoy both about the same.

Peru is in South America, which is part of the Americas.

Do you call people from Peru Americans?

This is what we get as "Turkish Pizza" in germany:

What the hell is that?

[Tyrianth]

If they live in Peru I'd call them Peruvian and say they're from the Americas.

So then youd agree that calling something "American" is disingenuous when referring to something from Peru.

What the hell is that?

Lahmacun. Döner Kebab in a Pizza.

They are technically American(a person from the Americas) like people from Germany are technically also European or Eurasian.

No more so than saying something is European when it comes from a specific area of Europe.

And people from the Americas are Americans...

Except no Country has adopted "European" as their official demonym. Whereas the US has adopted American as theirs. Claiming something from SA is American is disingenuous and purposely misleading.

"I don't like pizza."

You're either lying, or you're a terrorist. Mods do your civic duty!

[Tyrianth]

You can refer to them as American. You'd still technically be correct, if I'm not mistaken.

Disingenuous doesn't mean incorrect. It means insincere or misleading.

[Aggrophobic]

Not a fan of either but probably Italian if I have to pick one.
We get this poll like once every year, don't we?

France pizza is also great.

This isn't a pizza this is a flammekueche and it's delicious.

OT, what is an "american pizza" ? Because only "american" one I know is labeled Hawaiian pizza and contains pineapple.

[zEmini]

American Pizza is way to broad. You should added New York Thin, Mid-West Deep Dish and West Coast crust as a option.

That said, New York style.

[Nerovar]

If you don't prefer American Pizza you're most likely a communist.



Italian pizza is way better though. American pizza doesn't even taste like real pizza. It's just overloaded and extremely greasy. It might look nice but when it comes to pizza toppings less is definitely more.

[Tyrianth]

Right, and most of the other countries on our continents take umbrage with our usage. They consider themselves Americans and find it insulting that others don't think they are. They don't even call us Americans. They basically call us Unitedstatesians.

My Argentinian coworkers never got that memo. They refer to American citizens as Americans.

italian pizza is an appetizer.
