What do you value most in a pizza when you go to eat it: crust, sauce, cheese, or toppings/spices?

The dipping sauce aka garlic butter ranch

i don't mind the fold that much, but it should be foldable to some degree. but like no ass and nice tits if you have a bad crust you have a bad pizza.

Crust.
Pizza is made or broken by its dough quality.

Cheese no question about it. I can't remember if it was Dominos or Pizza Hut I ordered from a while back but I paid for extra cheese and it was barely noticeable so now I just get pizza from Papa Murphy's and they do a fine job
Would love to get pizza with actual extra cheese already cooked though

This goes for Pizza as well as Sandwiches for me. You can have freaking Oscar Meyer bologna but if it's on good bread you won't really give a shit.

Sauce > crust > toppings > cheese
It’s important to have a quality sauce in decent amounts. A shitty sauce will make a shitty pizza no matter how good the rest is. Not quite as important but still vital is the crust. It can’t be too thick or thin, undercooked or overcooked. The crust still has the ability to make or break a pizza. Toppings next. They aren’t necessary because you can have a good cheese pizza, but shitty toppings can ruin the experience. Last is cheese. Cheese isn’t unimportant by any means, but if the other 3 are done right you can use some industrial grade plastic slices and still enjoy the pizza. I made myself an Altoona style pizza a while back and even with the Kraft singles, I had made a decent sauce and crust and was able to say that it was pretty good. Only children think the cheese is most important.

>Toppings
Why would the sauce, crust, or cheese matter to you at all if you're just going to ruin it with toppings?

>> No.18031488

>>18031467
Well of course they can ruin an otherwise good pizza, but you don’t need any toppings. The issue is that even the best toppings can’t save a pizza with shitty sauce and crust.

>> No.18032010

Everything. A pizza needs good sauce, good crust, and good cheese to be a good pizza. Any faggot that says the cheese is most important, what? You'd eat a slab of cardboard with ketchup and nice cheese on it? Get over yourselves. Trump 2024

Pizza is a three legged stool. All three legs are equal and carry equal weight. If one leg is weak the entire stool fails. Namaste.

>> No.18032292

It's the sauce. Every time I've eaten a REALLY shitty pizza, I can always pinpoint it back to the sauce. It's either too sweet, or bitter, but no matter what, it sticks out more before anything else. Can you have shitty cheese? Sure. Can you have shitty dough? Sure, sure. But the sauce is the thing that hits your tongue first. It has the most robust flavor.
