that tweet reply is just 👄🤌
And they say white people have no culture.
Grand sweeping gesture
I mean, sandwich bread, tomato sauce, ham and cheese on top, it’s not a pizza, it’s a microwaved 3am sandwich
Not cheese. Kraft fucking singles
This is a fucking culinary crime.
There better be chilli fries under that cheese
Are those fucken Kraft singles? That’s deplorable and I am disgusted beyond the spiritual realm.
Y’all better be careful or you’re going to fall down a rabithold of locally celebrated yet disgusting pizza in PA. It’s like a whole thing there.
I knew PA was evil, but I never knew just how horrible.
I am biased being from NJ, but these pizzas vindicate me!
I propose the removal of Pennsylvania, except Philadelphia theyre chill.
its cuz PA west of the Appalachins is basically the midwest. it’s like having next door neighbors from Iowa
Okay but what about the Appalachian folks are they chill?
Weren’t they a murder capital for a bit?
Yes, why do you think I like them?
Not even pineapple could save that.
Hello? I would like to report a crime against humanity.
This is not pizza.
I’m the one to do gross shit like dip a dill pickle in mayonnaise at 3am, and even this looks objectively horrifying to me
there’s no excuse for making a bad pizza. It’s pizza, it’s very hard to do it wrong
The only people who say this are people who have never had good pizza before.
The “iT’s PiZzA, sO iT’s GoOd” crowd drive me nuts. You would probably put ketchup and Velveeta on a Ritz cracker and call it a pizza. Have some standards, my dude.
Yeah like, just don’t call it a pizza and we’re good. Call it an “Altooner” or whatever, but don’t soil the good reputation of pizza with whatever this creation is.
Altoona melt
Misc toppings on bread dough with some kind of cheese is probably thousands of years old.
If memory serves right a round bread with toppings is semi important in the Aeneid. Which assuming it isnt based off of older traditions means its at least 2000 years old, though I dont know if Virgil was pulling from older shit so I cant say for certain. Also I dont know if cheese was in Italy by that point.
Lol I can’t believe this is real. How terrible must food be in your city for this to be successful? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altoona-style_pizza
The most successful businesses in Altoona when I lived there in the early 2010s were drug rehabilitation centers. All the factories closed, and the town is slowly dying.
Fixed that for Wikipedia:
American cheese on pizza? that’s the kind of thing I would do if I’m down to the last two items in the kitchen, and feel too lazy to go shopping, but still would hate it
That’s the type of thing you make if you have nothing else in the fridge and you can’t go out to get anything else. And you’d keep that shit quiet and never admit to it to anyone.
Like Kenji’s smash burgers, “held together with hope and American Cheese”
cook with it? yeah
call it pizza? nope
Is this town filled with broke stoners or something?
Dunno about this particular area of PA, but the areas I am familiar with… the answer is meth.
Broke stoners in rural Pennsylvania? Say it ain’t so!
