Love it, love it, love it cold from the fridge. Almost better than hot, actually. ---

Used to. These days better circumstances, a wife who can really cook and sheer pretentiousness means we don’t _have_ left-over pizza. We either make our own from scratch, in which case there is none left over because we can customize the size, or we eat _good_ pizza while travelling, where there are no left-overs because we are travelling. The days of left-over Dominos in the fridge are behind me, thank Og. ---

Some pizzas are especially good cold. Some are terrible. It’s not related to the thickness of the crust, just the pizza itself. Wish I could dissect it further than that, but I can’t. But a good cold pizza is a delight for me. ---

\*\*Do you like cold Pizza? \*\*Hell yeah I like it. I prefer it hot out of the oven. But that wasn’t your question. So: Hell yeah! 😛 ---

Like most college kids, I learned to love cold pizza while in college. I never really lost the habit. I don’t care for cold pepperoni (personal preference, I don’t like it that much hot either), but otherwise, it’s fabulous. ---

Cold pizza with orange juice, mmmm. I love it a little less when peppers are a topping, but even then it’s pretty good. ---

Heh, it’s unlikely that cold Mama’s Pizza is going to make it to breakfast. But when it does, it is divine. ---

Cold pizza is awesome, especially when it’s heavy on the tomato sauce. ---

Take one slice to eat cold while you pop the rest in the toaster oven to reheat. ---

I used to, but over the years I’ve come to really dislike the taste of cold, or even reheated pizza. ---

Room temperature pizza is the best. I grew up with room temperature. It comes from my family never putting pizza in the refrigerator, unless it has meat on it. ---

> [@Robot\_Arm](#): > > Interesting. I’ve always thought that one of the fascinating properties of pizza was that it’s good hot, or good cold, but not so much in between. You’re the first person I’ve heard say otherwise. You must not have gone to college… sometimes after getting a pizza you tend to “doze off” on the couch with the rest of the pizza on the coffee table between you and the TV. Sometimes even holding a piece of the said pizza. Then, when you wake up at the crack of noon the first thing you grab is that piece of room temperature pizza. Heaven. Every now and then though it was Heaving instead of Heaven. ---

No. Really do not like cold pizza at all. Room temp pizza is fine though. Though, interestingly, cold Chicago style pizza (casserole? :D) is delicious cold. ---

I’m beginning to really loathe it. I used to be able to eat any pizza at any temp. But now I’m getting picky. The store-brand self-rising pizza I buy is fantastic out of the fridge. Pizza Hut pan pizza is so-so. Everything else is inedible cold, and near inedible re-heated.
