Pizza, how do you eat it?

[Verarde]

Hands are the only way to go.

 

[Leoreth]

Okay, but then you're quickly approaching something that shouldn't be called pizza anymore.

Pizza over here usually firm enough that you can hold a slice's edge in two fingers without the topping falling off (folding that kind of pizza would actually break it apart, I guess).

Jon Stewart had the absolutely last word on this topic back on June 1. Go over to the Daily Show web site and check it out. Won't post a link because it's not safe for the kids or civilized businesses.

And I totally agree with him, except for deep-dish stuff. I can't eat deep-dish with my hands--I've tried, and it's just a mess. Maybe there's some secret trick like the fold nobody has bothered to inform me of. But any thin-crust or New-York style pizza, hands are good enough for me.

Unfortunately, pizza is too delicious to only be consumed in downtown's presence.

Cutlery is for weaklings! Thus, I use hands.

 

[EnglishCrusader]

I eat pizza with a spoon.

At least now I know what the folding tric is
I have actually seen people do it like this, and it seems rather handy. I will try it next time
You will still need a fork and knife though, to cut the pizza pie in wedges...

The Irish don't count

Your inability to recognize your own typos is amusing.

That huge , unsliced piece of pineapple is just plain wrong

There should be some kind of penalty for eating pizza with cutlery, I'm almost sure it's against the rules.

We could take away their meat lovers' privileges.

They should have a booking for it at least. Anything less is not enough.

Agreed. Here in America, I'm almost positive that it's un-American to eat pizza with anything other than your hands.

The runcible spoon / chopsticks combo also has it's time and place

Contrary to what is shown in my photo, I actually put pizza in my mouth with my hands, and just use a knife and fork to cut it (but not put it in my mouth) in the following situation:

-I'm in a restaurant
-The pizza isn't already cut
-The pizza is hard to tear well

It's only taken 2 separate threads and numerous accusations and questions , but based on the above I find your position entirely reasonable.

Only OT could such a subject and make it so serious.

Well actually I'm bemoaning the frivolity in what should be a Red Diamond thread

Agreed. Since it's only for cutting, I give it my seal of approval.

It wouldn't show, since it is poll.

Folded and eaten with my hands.
