Just wait until you’ve heard about the war crime that is Ohio Valley-style pizza

      Hands down worst style of pizza I’ve ever tried. My company went on an outing in downtown Chicago to a place that was famous for it, and I was excited because I love Sicilian style and thought it would be similar. Nope, it was a three inch deep brick of bread. The crust, usually my favorite part, was an inedible greasy rind. Cold tomato paste on top sealed the deal.

        1. Cold is wrong and I dunno where the hell you you went. Cold is extremely wrong.

        2. I’m from Chicago and really it would save everyone a lot of trouble if we didn’t call it pizza. Honestly, we usually don’t. If you want pizza, you say pizza. If you want deep dish, you say deep dish. If someone said we were having pizza and then a deep dish pizza showed up, I would be pleasantly surprised, but I would still be surprised.

        3. No, it’s nothing like Sicilian style pizza.

        4. Greasy crust? Seriously where the hell did you go?

          I live in the Chicago burbs but I can confirm we usually just say deep dish pizza instead of Chicago style
