The 101 Best Pizzas in America (affirmative action for pizza?)
The Daily Meal ^ | Taylor Rock

Posted on 09/14/2020 12:32:00 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Pizza is always there for you. At your eighth birthday party with all your friends and that clown, it was there for you. During your late-night college cram sesh, it was there for you. After a long day of work, a hot cheesy slice was there to comfort you — and maybe a bottle of wine too.

Pizza is a staple of American meals, which means it’s pretty easy to come across. It can sometimes feel like there is a pizzeria around every corner, but there’s just something about a great pizza. Here is where to find the 101 best pizzas in America.

The list should only have included Italian men.

Pizza was invented by a man in Naples, Italy.

It is cultural appropriation for anybody other than an Italian man to offer pizza in a restaurant.

Obviously, women and blacks who own businesses that make pizza are guilty of cultural appropriation. /sarc

When the toppings are not evenly distributed, or not covering most of the crust, I lose interest. And I don’t want any weird stuff like pineapple, hot-wings-flavored chicken, eggs, guacamole, etc.

Amen to that.Go visit New Haven CT and find some of the best pizza you ever had...just visit Wooster St. and you will find so much of the best Italian food you've ever had.

I recall one time in Los Angeles I asked someone for a good pizza place and he told me to get on a certain highway and “don’t stop until you hit St. Louis.” It was funny 30 years and still make me smile.

You don't have to go that far. Just take the 60 east to the 57 south, turn off at Brea Canyon Road and in about three miles, you'll be at Fratellino's Italian restaurant in Brea, Calif.

A lot of the stereotypes of Italian restaurants came from all those places in New Jersey, many of them very famous.

Not One pizza place in Alabama is on this list. I know of 6 great pizza places in Alabama, and none of them are corporate.

The best pizza places are mom & pop shops that have “been there forever” with owners that can trace their family back to Italy.

They don’t have to be in New York state, but usually are. It just is, get over it.

They usually make a kickass meatball sub, and bonus points if they can sell you a cannoli.

Somebody will be tossing the dough. If not, turn around and run.

500 points for someone saying something, anything, in Italian. Lots of leniency on this, even “Mingya, where’s Vinny? Friggin delivery was 5 minutes away!”

Crust will not be a giant loaf of bread with too much sauce. What is that?!

Minus 5,000 points if it is so greasy reddish orange oil is dripping off your elbows. Though a few slices of this can help avoid a hangover.

1,000 points if you can taste the ingredients. Meaning, as you bite in you notice the crust, the sauce, cheese, and other toppings. It shouldn’t taste like a big broiled glob of stuff you suffered through as a ‘dinner’ your ex-wife made. Be glad she’s gone and pray for the dumb bastard who now has to put up with her mood swings and inability to distinguish vermicelli from lasagna.

Toppings can not include weird shit. You want some science experiment with kale, elk testicle, and vermouth - you need help. Professional help. Go now.

Lastly if you’ve failed to eat the whole pie, it should taste great cold the next day.

Godita la tua pizza.

Cold pizza and a beer on Sunday morning. Then off to a football party. That was my 20’s. I wonder why I put on 30 pounds that decade.

Primanti's pizza on the beach in Fort Lauderdale is really good. Never had it in the burgh.

Up here, Willie's (in the Shell station) in Juno Beach is the best. He's an ornery one though. Like getting pizza from the Soup Nazi.

Can't argue w/ his results though. Fantastic pies.
