Genuine American Italian is thin & crispy and that's what I always have.

I usually prefer a normal crust, not a thin cracker and not too doughy either. Though on a Detroit style the thicker the better, really.

However I haven't had pizza in years. The carbs aren't on my menu and cauliflower smells... bad. I won't be graphic. I realize there are too many "sensitive" types here.

The local market sells two types - round with thin crust and rectangular with thick crust. The thin is like cardboard and the thick is so chewy it's difficult to masticate and swallow. There's gotta be a happy in-between.

I love pizza, especially with lots of good veggies on it, the more the better ! I don’t like cardboard crust and i don’t like the really thick crust either.
Since I try to be careful with carbs, especially grain foods, I often just nibble the end of the pizza crust and eat the top fillings off of the rest of it, because it is too cardboard-tasting, or too gooey (not cooked enough) and it seems it is either one or the other.
The dogs are totally happy to have the rest of the crust, so it works out fine that way.

Thin crust, made well, even tossed in the air! is not card boardy

At the pizza place I order from they have Deep Dish or regular which is thinner. I always get the deep dish.

Homemade, fairly thin & pliant... but not undercooked & soggy.

In Italy they never serve anything else other than thin...very thin.... ...because Pizza in Italy even tho' it's very large, is a starter ..... I don't like any other type

The difference in pizza btwn upstate NY, home of Stewarts, (and almost anywhere else) and Brooklyn is huge.

Did it?.. I thought it was pretty samey really.... I mean the food we had was always wonderfully cooked, more tasty than any Italian restaurant in the UK, but it was limited...even during the day restaurants were not open for lunch.... they don't typically outside of Tourist areas like Rome, or Florence have what we know as coffee shops..instead they're known as Bars... and that's where you would typically get a coffee and a piece of cake (Tortina)... but never lunch.. no-one eats out during the day... ..

Same with the food in the supermarkets, and markets much like Spain, it's kind of all very limited except for fruit and veggies .... of which there are enormous varieties


I spent a year living and working not far from Verona, and the best Itlaian restaurant and food I ever had was in a rooftop restaurant in Greece,,,
