It’s obvious what you mean by “thin pizza”, but when you say “thick pizza” do you mean Chicago style deep dish (which most respondents seem to be assuming) or do you mean Sicilian style?
If you mean Sicilian then I have to vote thick. I love the standard NY style thin slice but Via Veneto’s Sicilian Pizza is famous in my area. Everyone swears it’s the world’s best.
It’s all good. But if I had to pick, I’d pick thin crust: it’s less filling and carby, so I can enjoy more of the rest of the pizza (sauce/cheese/toppings).
For me, Thick crust could Sicilian Pizza or just a regular round pizza but the crust is thicker (you order it that way). Chicago style is a different animal to me.
I prefer thin/thiner side of things, but thick/deep dish can be okay too.
I think the bigger problem is that thin is much more likely to be done correctly. A poorly done (and more likely to be that way) thick/deep dish is just terrible IMO. Its like a cross between an under cooked giant biscuit and a shallow thick stew.
Yeah, go ahead and make a round piece of bread, throw some toppings on it, without cheese or sauce and see how many people besides some hipster douches call it a pizza.
I assume you mean “cold” Sicilian? You may mean tomato pie, which is a different thing from pizza.
This place is famous around here for their tomato pie. http://www.corropolesebakery.com/?page_id=13
Serve a random person a white pizza with pepperoni on it, but just call it a pepperoni pizza. Tally the responses and get back to us.
Yeah, technically speaking a hamburger bun with ketchup and american cheese is a pizza too, but I wouldnt go head to head with Pappa Johns with that business model.
Then again, I am kinda racist, so I might like a pizza with an extra helping of white on it.
