Nah, it’s a lonely birthday order. Those have immunity before the pizza criminal courts. As have “I was just cheated on” and "my pet died* orders. Ohy and "fuck this sounds disgusting but I’m pregnant so this ain’t even the weirdest shit I’ve eaten in the last week " orders

I believe the exception is towards ordering to satisfy strong emotions. There are exceptions to the exception, but yeah. Pizza ordered to assist with the processing of significant feels is generally exempt from litigation.

Hey, a crime is still a crime even if one is granted immunity from pizza prosecution.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !pizzacrimes@lemmy.world

As an olive hater and tomato sauce purist:

that’s not even a pizza anymore.

Tomato sauce purist you say…

You realize tomatoes are not native to Europe at all? They are native to South America and weren’t introduced to Italy until the 1500s. Even if you consider pizza at all to be Italian, the pizzas we know are a far cry from true Italian pizza.

My favorite kinda pizza comes from Detroit. Runner up: Chicago. Italian style pizza isn’t even in contention :P

Bread was invented in Egypt so by your standards “true Italian” pizza can’t have that either.

Pretty sure there were other places in Africa and the Middle East where bread making technology was being developed.

I guess every culture that came to the conclusion to make some kind of bread at some point in time eventually put stuff on that bread. Like leftovers. The question is, do we call that a pizza… Or is it a flat sandwich or something…

Yup. Pizza as a word to mean a flatbread with toppings pre-date the arrival of tomatoes in Europe by a good 1400 years ish.

Just like how ketchup originally was just kind of a type of plant matter derived sauce with a runny consistency that utilized a fair amount of salt. Tomato ketchup was at one point a fairly new fangled novelty as for the longest time the favoured version of it was made of mushrooms.

The tomato more than most tends to just take over certain parts of food culture and drives out all other varieties. It’s kind of the cuckoo of the food world.

in what country do pizzas cost $30? edit: damn your pizzas are either huge or expensive, here in finland a standard pizza costs about 12€ and with 25€ you get heavenly pizza made with the best ingredients baked in a wood fired oven. And i thought food here was expensive

The same place where you can get that many olives on a pizza without paying extra, I guess.

That’s what I thought. Imagine paying 30 bucks for a pizza in (I assume) the US and then be expected to give a six dollar tip. Brutal. I’d never order in.

Pizza hut huts $30 if you add 4 toppings. Pizza is stupid expensive anymore.

I went to a place on the Oregon coast not that long ago that was selling large pizzas for $43. There was nothing special about the pizza, it was not in a particularly touristy area, I don’t know what they were thinking.

I live in nyc. You can get large plain pie for $18 from most places. Toppings are usually about $4 each.

But there are expensive places. At work we ordered some pies for an in-office event last week. The guy picked a fancy place where all the pies were at least $30.

Canada for one, a large pepperoni at my local pizza place is $28. Most of the loaded type pizzas are $35-$40 for a large.
