If you don’t feel like eating the crust, you’re having a shitty pizza.

Agreed. Just crushed a pizza and the crust was awesomely good

Unless you’re trying to maximize protein to carb ratio when eating a pizza (if your top priorityis to eat the pizza). But then, are you really eating a pizza if you don’t eat the crust?

Marcos is where it’s at.

People like to shit on little sneazers too but they’re pizza is made from the shame shit as their crazy bread.

Also all crust tastes fire when dipped in a vat of garlic butter.

I hope this comment burns this into your memory and one day, when you’ve had a proper slice of whichever style ends up being your favorite, you think about what you said.

Apparently you’ve been eating substandard pizza, because really good pizza crust is a delight unto itself.

However if you insist you only like the toppings, you have 2 choices:

  1. Find a life partner who loves crust.

  2. Just bake the toppings in/on a sheet pan and eat them directly from it, without crust.

My substandard pizza is like $4, edible crust isn’t worth the difference when an upgrade is slightly less substandard pizza.

It’s not just toppings, but it’s all of them together that I prefer. 1’s good advice though for sure

Even when our dough is off, it’s oiled and garlicked. I find it hard to argue with the garlic.

Fuck that.

  • You’re a grown ass adult, eat whatever you want

If you don’t like the taste of crust and have enough money that you don’t need to make use of every piece of food, then don’t eat the crust.

If you don’t like the taste of crust but think it has some benefit, then eat the crust.

If you don’t like the taste of crust but are broke and want to eat the crust to feel full so you can spend more money on other stuff, then eat the crust.

If you like the taste of crust but want to save the crusts to make an art piece out of them, then don’t eat the crust.

YOU’RE AN ADULT, YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT, DON’T LET SOCIETY PRESSURE YOU TO DO OTHERWISE

Counterpoint: Society should be pressuring people not to increase food waste just because they can afford throw stuff away for no reason.

People throwing away crust isn’t even a grain of sand in the ocean of food waste. But as stated in my original comment, you can choose to eat the crust if that feels important to you. And even though you would be wrong for pressuring other people to eat crusts, the other person should do whatever the fuck they want despite your pressuring

This opinion is a similar vein as “there’s no point recycling plastic because most plastic waste is caused by industry”. We are all grains of sand on this earth. And in turn we are all full of microplastics.

But that’s exactly what i said - do whatever the fuck you want! If you want to eat the crust so you don’t create as much food waste, then eat the crust! You’re an adult, you can do whatever you want!

If you eat food just because you “Don’t want to waste it”, you become the wastebin.

I’ll mail the leftover crusts to “children in Africa”, maybe that will solve the world hunger.

Or, you know, someone in need nearby. There are homeless people eating out of garbage and families using food banks everywhere. But then you’d also look like an asshole for just giving them a bunch of crusts instead of a whole slice.

How about just not buying more food than you can eat? Or save a couple of slices for the next day? Or give someone else a slice before you fill up on the inner circle of your plate of food?

Proper bread is a very very basic acquired taste. It’s something you should’ve acquired in your teens latest. If you don’t like crust, it’s because you mother was helicopter parenting and cutting off crust from your sandwiches.

I swear that the best burger in town, the best sandwich in town, the best pizza in town and the best breakfast bread are all because of the crust.

Not even attempting to eat it is a lack of experience. Or a lack of good bakeries or burger, pizzaand sandwich stores.

I’m telling you that you’re missing out here. It’s not a fucking choice. You don’t know what you’re missing until you’ve had a proper crust. Cutting it off is like, yeah sure there are bad crust and all, but you’re only eating the less important part of the meal to begin with. How can you even judge the food without the crust?

I think they’ve got a point. You like bread like a good sourdough or baguette? Or you like American sandwich bread full of sugar. It is a world of difference and they’ve got a point. Lack of experience is nicer than saying you have bad taste. Maybe you’ve just had bad pizza? Maybe you’re fucking 16? Hard to tell on the Internet

It can be surprisingly difficult to get good crust in the US. But I can understand not always wanting to eat the crust in America because some pizzarias just don’t care enough to make a good dough.

Spoiled kids, mostly. I grew up broke and we had to eat everything we were given, or go hungry. But a lot of the kids I grew up around were much better off financially and could afford to not eat the parts they disliked.

I tried that once. Didn’t even taste much better. And now I’m vegan so unless its mock cheese I’ll never have a chance to try it again.
