Pizza has crust walls. Pizza is quiche.

So deep dish pizza is quiche, thin crust is toast?

The Structure purist is strong with this one

Wouldn't a stuffed crust be sushi? It's a tube, it just connects until you slice the pizza

This implies that a steak is a salad.

What about the Danish French Hotdog? Where does that fit in?

Or stuffed crust is the sushi of the pizza

I'd rename two categories.

Bottom right: I'd rather refer to a cake as "lasagna" than call lasagna a "cake"

Bottom left: if someone made a quiche without walled sides I'd still call it a quiche, so I'd rather call that category "pie"

This has the added bonus of making most pie people furious and some pizza people angry unless they like Chicago deep dish.

  1. Isn’t “lasagna”, as we refer to it, technically a casserole made with layers of lasagne, cheese, and sauce? Not that “casserole” is a category, but I’m just being pedantic at this point, soz

  2. I’ve always maintained that pizza is a tart rather than a pie

Then a calzone is just a big taco

are flatbread and pitas toast?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Flatbread yes. Most people I know either stuff their pita or fold it, so that would be a taco?

Imagine people thinking food cam be categorized consistently like that.

Food is cultural and historical; nothing outside of its preparation is scientific or internally logically consistent, so stop trying to force it to be.

A hot dog is a damn hot dog. Now stop arguing about it, and get this crap off of my feed
