Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Crust is the thicker bit on the perimeter. You wanted to reference the base of the pizza.

The thicker part on the perimeter is the Cornicione.

In the US, the word crust is often incorrectly used to describe the edge of the pizza. The crust is the whole bread part of the pizza, not only the edge.
