Stop screwin' with pizza, dammit!

Yeah, be happy you're not in birizza land. Biryani rice on a pizza shell. Fully carb loaded and not much else. *shudders*

Never been to California Pizza Kitchen, never will.

I saw the thread title and I thought this was going to be about some perverse news story. Whew!

But, I dont mind experimenting with pizza. Who said it has to only be tomato sauce, cheese, and pepperoni?

Bacon on pizza is delish.

And we ate at a place that was set up like a pizza *brain fart!* a... bar, one of those places you go to that has all the food on steam tables and you can eat as much of everything you want... gah!

Anyway, they had all sorts of pizzas. BLT pizzas. A chicken ranch, like you mentioned. Just every different style you could imagine. Best pizza joint EVAH! Absolutely mouth watering. *sighs and drools*

I wish they were local because I don't feel like drivng 50 miles just to have a pizza.

I have wheat gluten allergies. You want gross pizza-rice based gluten free pizza-it's just so wrong. I actually debate whether it would be worth getting sick for a day or two just to eat a good old fashin cheese pizza

Bah. I have so many food alergies all I should be eating is jello and I hate jello. So I live with daily stomach distress so I can eat what I like.

I believe the word you're looking for is "buffet."

As for me, I'm with kct on this. And have you looked at the potato chip aisle lately? Meat-flavoured potato chips are just so wrong!

Yes. Buffet! Thanks! That was going to drive me nuts for the rest of the day, then at 3am I would have woken up and gone, "Buffet!" And my wife would hit me over the head with a pillow and I'd stare at the ceiling for hours until I came online to edit my post, only to have forgotten the word again.

Poore Brothers put out a Steak flavored chip, no longer available here, that was delicious. Pringles has a "short time only" chip that's a cheeseburger. Interesting.

I guess I'm not a food snob about these things. I'll try anything and few combinations put me off.

I made a delicious, homemade Baked Potato Pizza twice. It's wonderful. Potatos, sour cream, ranch dressing, shredded cheese, tomatoes, broccoli, bacon, all on a pizza crust....*drools*

Thanks for the laugh. I know I absolutely hate it when I can't find a simple word like that in my lumber-room of a mind...

Cheeseburger potato chips? Ick. I'm one of those folks who likes plain food, not terribly well cooked. I didn't even put ketchup on anything until I was in my teens.

Wait. Did you make the pizza two times or was it a twice baked potato piizza?

I believe I once saw an ad for a pizza buffet-style restaurant that had PB&J pizza or maybe PB and banana...that made me wince. Maybe it was just a bad dream...

Sorry, I loved it so much that I've made it twice.

And you didn't share.

I'll take this opportunity to voice a pizza-related complaint.

When I go to a buffet, there should always be some pepperoni on deck. ALWAYS. I hate it when you go to a buffet and there are assorted pizzas with gotdamn pineapples and anchovies and shuriken and other weird toppings, but not one pepperoni.

If I ask a little kid to draw a picture of a pizza, you know what I'll get? A large circle divided into six or eight triangular sections with a bunch of smaller circles drawn all over it. You know what that is? A drawing of pepperoni pizza. You know why that's what a little kid would draw?

Because that's the damn standard topping of pizza. I'm all for variety in pizza toppings, but you should always have a pepperoni ready at the buffet table. Always...

No one mentioned chocolate pizza yet?! Hmmmm....

Dessert "pizza" is a whole nuther animal. It's called pizza but it's more of a flat, round pastry. My wife makes some kind of kiwi fruit pizza.

Can I just say that ranch dressing on pizza is nothing short of heavenly?

Not to someone who eats dessert first.

But if forced to eat healthier, I like my pizza topped with sliced tomatoes, fresh basil, fresh mozzarella (not the packaged kind), and a little homemade sauce.

Fresh minced garlic, fresh spinach, fresh tomato slices and mushrooms on top for me (but it has to be a place with quality ingredients). And I am partial to standard red sauce.

I think your thread title deserves a place in AW's Hall of Fame for thread titles. If they had one, that is. Yeah, I like my pizza w. plain ol' cheese (ok, and chocolate) and I'm a happy camper.

There's a buffet down the street from me that has macaroni & cheese pizza. It has pasta on top. I didn't like it.

There's a pizza buffet in this area. Maybe someday I'll try it. Maybe. But only if they have chocolate pizza for dessert with create-your-own toppings!

Take me w. you when you go, purty please, stormie.

I've seen commercials on cable for that! I forget the name.

Unfortunately there aren't any in our area. I hate commercials for things I can't get. It seems like the worst form of torture.

I love mac and cheese in all it's forms, even deep fried and on a stick. I think on a pizza would be heavenly.
