Pizza, how do you eat it?

[Mise]

deepdish: often with cutlery. Thin crust: often my bare hands.

Yup, this.

I, too, don't want greasy hands.

 

[GoodSarmatian]

"It's too hot."
Then wat until it isn't!
"It' greasy."
Use a paper towel and wash your hands afterwards.

The excuses some people make...

 

[Mise]

Why create all those problems for yourself? Eating with your hands has no advantages, only disadvantages. It doesn't taste any different, so why burden yourself with messy hands?

 

[Leoreth]

Knife and fork: if the pizza is likely to fall apart if I do otherwise. Also, when eating in restaurants.

Bare hands: else.

Because I have principles !

 

[Yeekim]

In a restaurant: with cutlery.
At home: usually with hands.

 

[Tahuti]

I practically always use cutlery to eat pizza, even at home. I used to eat pizza's at home with my hands when I was younger though.

 

[Silurian]

I use my mouth.

 

[CELTICEMPIRE]

I wasn't even aware that people used cutlery on Pizza!

Speed isn't a disadvantage.

 

[Silurian]

Some people like to eat slowly and enjoy their food.

 

[Mise]

It's no quicker though, especially if the pizza is a bit floppy.

Contextually appropriate, though! That's something you do with a nice steak or something similarly savory. Pizza is, well, pizza.

You never figured out the "fold it" trick in the UK?

 

[Mise]

I fold it with my knife and fork!

 

[jtb1127]

Mostly with my hands, but sometimes with a fork.

Must....resist

 

[Dachs]

I fold it with my knife and fork!

That's a great deal slower. Speed is what we're getting at, right?

 

[Mise]

That's what I mean, it's no slower for me! I fold it in a different direction though.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Well it depends what mood I'm in, or where I am.

If it's at a restaurant, or I can't be arsed with messiness, I'll eat it with a knife and fork. If it's something like a home delivery, or I can be arsed with messiness, I'll just use my hands as nature intended.

I am sad that you have never had a pizza that was good enough that you wanted to enjoy it rather than just eat it.
