Let's just get this out of the way: Putting ranch dressing on your pizza is disgusting and foul and you should feel ashamed of yourself if you desecrate the sanctity of the holy union of bread, tomato sauce, and cheese. For shame!
Anyway, Cane Rosso's in Dallas is doing it right and "charging" customers a sweet grand for the privilege to eat their pizza WRONG. Owner Jay Jerrier explained to Eater the type of people he usually encounters ordering this pghlemy subtance. It's weird, it always seems to be young, college-age girls that ask for it.
Of course, when they caught wind of his joke giant bottle of ranch, the Annals of Reddit reacted as they often do. Everybody [on Reddit] seems to assume we're the worst people in the world, like how dare they tell me how to eat my pizza! Dude, it's a joke. Relax.
But really, it's just a damn Yankee thing.
It was pretty funny how people did take it really seriously and were super offended. I guess it's the Midwest. They love them some ranch.
Also, it's his restaurant. He can do what he wants.
Well you know, at Cane Rosso we really try — and you gotta take this with a grain of salt — we try to stay authentically Neapolitan, but we're also the same guys who are putting brisket on pizza, and bacon marmalade. But we really try to stay far away from the kind of Midwest-American tradition. No chicken, no ham, no pineapple. I think for the most part, again, take it with a grain of salt, Cane Rosso is more about restraint and balance where we're not taking it to extremes. Ban ranch dressing on pizza.
I thought I was setting down at my Aunts table. lol
GAAAAAAHHHH! YES!
The Canadians taught me to eat french fries with vinegar.
Taste sorta similar to salt and vinegar ships? Because I like those....Might have to try vinegar fries
“Bet he doesn’t have a problem with middle-aged male construction workers putting tabasco or hot pepper flakes on their pizza. Oh, because they’re not idiots, they’re gastronomy experts.”
Telling construction workers how to eat their pizza is normally not a good idea.
Another place to avoid like the plague
Food snobs of all stripes are irritating and tedious.
If you like it, it’s good.
Is that food or barf?
I know how that pumpkin feels!
My best friend has a wonderful, awesome, gun slinging wife. She is very much a Midwestern matron, and DAMN... Can she cook!
The pumpkin reminded me of her cooking, because she had a recipe for a light, complex beef stew that was cooked inside of a pumpkin, and you would scrape the cooked pumpkin off into the stew. That was about 20 years ago and I still remember it.
There is some GREAT cuisine in the Midwest.
But those... _things_ made with jello...
*shudder*
If I were the store owner there would be only one “demand” of my customers pizza eating habits... NO FISH!!! Can’t even bake it in the oven without getting the stink on the other pizzas. Wouldn’t even offer anchovies. YUK!!!
Looks like a vomit do-nut.
