In the US there are areas where the only pizza options for dozens of miles are chains. Garbage like Little Caesar’s, Pizza Hut, Domino’s, etc. It’s typically areas where people have less surplus income to spend on eating out, so the local pizza chains aren’t able to compete with the lower prices of big chains. It blows my mind that someone from one of these places might go their entire life without tasting a quality slice of pizza.Are these pizza deserts a thing where you live, or is this a uniquely American phenomenon?
An additional observation: Whenever I see someone talking about how amazing Costco pizza is, 9/10 times they’re from one of these places. It further illustrates how grim things are in a pizza desert when people swear by pic related over chain pizza.
>>22280512im too scared to order from local places bcause i cant make an order online
>>22280516Pathetic
>>22280512It's the opposite outside North America.Dominos and Pizza Hut are expensive compared to the local pizza and kebab slop stores.In some countries these are luxury brands! Pizza Hut sit-down restaurants in Asia are awesome
its a meme response but I genuinely learned how to make my own and now I can't go back because being able to make a 'za however the fuck I want while keeping the calories down and the price cheap is awesome
>>22280512Pizza is really, really important in your world, huh?
>>22280515chains are better than whatever this is
>>22280512I have a brick oven place locally and have been to a meme spot in Brooklyn. Most of the time I would rather have Dominos pan than either of those.
>>22280575I've never had Costco pizza but I always assumed it would taste like a Little Caesars with extra cheese. Little Caesars is at its best when it's cooked well done and has extra sauce and cheese.
>>22280541>In some countries these are luxury brands!FFSThe delusion is real.
>>22280512Look at this street shitting jeet pretending he knows anything about America
>>22280605NTA but when I was in Spain I was blown away by how bad their national pizza chains are. The CEO of Telepizza needs to be brought to The Hague for his crimes, that stuff is just horrific. If that was my only other option then I guess Domino’s would seem like a luxury by comparison.
>>22280638I’m Indian? Wasn’t aware of that.
>>22280638don't you have something better to do on a sunday afternoon ?
>>22280640The thing is unless americans don't get the same as they are used to in america, they throw a head fit.Everything is bad unless it conforms to franchise/corporation, mass produced standards that americans are brought up with.Anything decent is bad-mouthed because it doesn't taste like a Wendys pizza.
>>22280663>Anything decent is bad-mouthed because it doesn't taste like a Wendys pizza.I don’t think you understand what I’m saying. Telepizza sucks BECAUSE it taste like a “Wendy’s pizza”. I have never had a more plasticky, artificial looking or tasting pizza in my life, and I’ve have Little Caesars. It’s just bad pizza.
>>22280671Fair enough
There is absolutely no good pizza in the states of Nebraska, Iowa, and Kansas.
>>22280512But the big chains are always so much more expensive.
Back in my day bad pizza was called cardboard pizza
Two of the highest-rated pizza places in the US are both literally around the corner from my house in opposite directions. There are literally dozens of places to get pizza within a single mile of here and I would have to travel two miles away before I find a chain pizza joint. Pizza Hut keeps trying to break into this market, even opening in the exact same spot twice, and it always closes within two years. The newest attempt closed in just six months. The location where they tried twice held a Domino's in between the two attempts. Obviously, it also failed.We're actively hostile to chain pizza here.
>>22280512I can order from like a 50 different places although majority of them get their shit from the same supplier so they end up being the same
>>22280512>In the US there are areas where the only pizza options for dozens of miles are chainswithout any prior research I feel this is incredibly untruehaving visited, lived and traveled through various levels of bumfuck-nowhere in several different low population states, there has always been a bar, tavern or diner that serves pizza far superior to any chainit's one of those things where you could post an address and I guarantee there's a place that serves decent pizza within a 1hr drive
>>22280512In Florida there are tons of Italians, Jews and Greeks down here so plenty of decent local pizza and delis
>>22280512Can't say that I do, no.
>>22280743This is factually incorrect. Des Moines has at least two good options on Ingersoll, west of downtown. Can't speak for the rest of the state.
