Tired Pizza Argument

by KitchenBoy on February 28, 2010

Today I watched the umpteenth program debating/arguing about which style of pizza is best – Chicago or New York? While this is a uniquely American argument, it is in my opinion, a pointless one.

I grew up in northern Indiana where I learned to love Chicago style pizza. While serving in the Marines, I learned from New York buddies to love a good thin slice.

I enjoy eating the finest expressions of both styles of pizza. Arguing about which is better is like arguing about which fruit is better, a peach or a mango. They are completely different creations.

You can argue about who makes the best type of Chicago deep dish or who makes the best New York pie, just please don’t try to say one style is better than the other.

Rather, let’s learn to appreciate the merits of each.

Please, no hate mail from New Yorkers or Chicagoans :-)

  1. I love it! I have been in the middle of two people going at it before, and it really is lame. I always say it’s like the two guys who argue over a particular brand of light (lite) beer. One likes Coors, one Miller, and one Bud. Then they say they “hate” the others. I always say you can prefer one, but to say you hate one is crazy, their too similar. A good pie is a good pie. You can prefer one, but you still like pizza.
