>>18340980
You're not actually supposed to live in Ohio.

>>18340980
/ck/ is retarded with the "local is always better" bullshit.
Every local pizza place in every region I've ever lived around in the US has been trash. Meanwhile there have always been Pizza Huts, Domino's, and Papa John's with decent pizza everywhere.
I'm sure you can find exceptionally good pizza at CERTAIN local pizza places, but the idea it's anywhere close to all local pizza places that are good is just stupid and wrong.

>>18340980
how is that any worse than chain pizza?

>>18340980
What's the problem here? Lack of dipping sauces and string cheese in the crust?

>>18340980
Oh my God the pizza place gave you a pizza how dare they!

>>18340980
non-chain pizza is pretty much always shit

If I want a good meal, I go to McDonald's

>>18340980
That would look good if it didn't get dropped or slung around in the box. The crust looks fine

>>18340980
>>18340986

You can't trust pizza from white people anymore. You gotta find those resteraunts that are run by an immigrant whose livelihood depends on the quality of the food. They will give y ou the most delicious stuff because their heart went into it.

White people these days only run a pizza place because they want to do some hipster bullshit or think it is an easy buck and will use the shittiest, cheapest ingredients out there.

>Racism on a blue board

>>18341307
what is racist? im genuinely curious now because that term is throw around so much that nothing is racist anymore

>>18341338
speaking in absolutes is for idiots

>>18341020
All three of those chains are garbage tier goyslop. I'd rather just not have pizza at all if that's my only option. There's some shitty local spots everywhere too, I actively avoid them and go to ones that are good

>>18341056
New Yorker here. The cheese slices look... sort of okay? The crust is a bit sus but I guess I'd try it

Jets is best chain

>>18340980
Where do you live?
I live in the pizza belt, no one orders from chains cuz they are crap.
Mom and pop pizza places on every corner with brick ovens and good connected dough as well as fresh toppings
can't even imagine getting a papa johns or dominos or pizza hut slop

>>18340980
I can get much better pizza locally but I need to enter the city. The local place in the 'burbs is mediocre.

>>18340980
this unironcally looks better than any fast food pizza ive ever seen

>>18340986
this this this this this

>>18340980
To be honest, the middle does look crap and undercooked, but the outside looks better than 99% of corporate pizzas. Try telling them, and they might fix it next time, then you've got 10/10 pizza with real ingredients and not GMO soybug dough.

Fuck it I'm getting a pizza.

>>18341720
>Mixed seafood + hot salami and jalapeno
Don't even care

Objectively cheaper and better than any local pizza.

>>18341882
Lots of good toppings although the crust looks died out and flat specially around the edges

>>18341882
Might as well put all that on a saltine cracker

>>18341926
You must live in a flyover

Be glad you dont live in germ*ny. You might as well eat feces and save money instead of ordering pizza. The most passable pizza i've eaten so far came from a fucking kebab shop. But maybe it's just me, I do hate frozen pizza as well.

>>18341962
Most Germans eat that anyways

>>18341020
Where the fuck do you live? Shit hole flyover country? Papa Johns is so unrelentingly awful I'd rather buy some prefab crust shit from an Indian restaurant then try and stomach that saccharine garbage.

If local joints where youve been cant surpass the candy flavour of Papa Johns or the cardboard crust Pizza Hit offers you and your surrounding area need to be nuked.

>>18340980
Dominos literally can't be beat unless you live in Italy or NYC

>>18342213
DFW TX. But have also lived in Northern NJ, Tempe AZ, and Boston MA.
SOME local places might be better than chains but NEVER all local places. That should be obvious since each local place is its own self-contained shop and some people set up great shops while others set up crap.
The major chains provide somewhat consistent middling decency you can count on when you don't want to roll the dice on some literally who mom & pop shop.
And more often than not, when I've tried a no name brand local place anywhere in the US, you end up with something worse than chain food, not better. It's very easy to make low quality fucked up food and that'a exactly what most non-chain places do.

>>18342249
If you cant figure out what the good pizza places are, you probably have brain damage.

I literally just google searched 'best pizza my hometown' and then clicked on the TripAdvisor list and sure enough, all five pizzerias that topped the list are clearly better than Dominos and Pizza Hut.

>>18340980
I used to live in Hartford, and let me tell you, pizza was not that city's strong suit. There were many local places that were absolute garbage. There were good spots too, but local is definitely not always better.

>>18341302
White run pizza place near me is absolute garbage and overpriced meanwhile minority run pizza place near me is reasonably priced and is genuinely good pizza

>>18342282
>If you cant figure out what the good pizza places are
Not what the claim was you goalpost moving faggot.
The claim was that ALL LOCAL PIZZA PLACES ARE BETTER THAN CHAINS.
Now you're trying to escape to the much weaker SOME LOCAL PLACES ARE BETTER THAN CHAINS argument, which nobody would disagree with in the first place.

It's a meme just like the wholesome local business mom and pop store.
Settle for what you know is best. At least corporate stores have to worry about protecting their brand image.

>>18341131
Hey f you chuckee has good pizza. Been 20 years but hey

making a great pizza in a home oven takes, what, an hour of hands-on time? If your alternatives are shitty I'd recommend it

>>18342899
>making a great pizza in a home oven takes, what, an hour of hands-on time?
that sounds like a lot of time I could spend doing things that aren't work

>literally paying much more
>literally having to drive to a specialized food restaurant that sells pizzas
>all that gas and time wasted by you or a delivery guy

Jesus christ, get a pizza from the freezer, pop in oven, done.

>>18342899
It's more like 20 minutes hands on. 5 to prep the dough and you can have two pizzas ready by the time the oven preheats.

>>18342925
The dough has to set in the fridge retard. Lmao you people suck dick at cooking

>>18340980
fucking this. thats why i rarely order from local shops unless they have stellar and real reviews

>>18340980
everything is now cheap goyslop thanks to the artifical supply chain shortages caused by the government lockdowns and then the fake war in ukraine. the fda dropped some new regulations in the begining of 2020 which allowed corporations to substitute out ingredients without updating the labeling as long as it was 'similar' to what was listed, these downgrade substitutions went on for 2 years and became standardized, now everything tastes like shit pretty much everywhere you go.

Just make your own. unironically. do it. its the only way you will be able to really enjoy a meal now, and this will probably hold true for the rest of our lives.

>>18340980
This is what they gave me. That's all onions.

>>18341020
So true. I'd rather unironically bake a $9 frozen Amy's pizza than eat the goyslop floppy 'za made some drug addicted teens at a "local joint"

>>18343610
>a pizzeria run by an old white dude
bullshit. 99% of old white boomers have the worst taste and palate. and they're all greedy as fuck. the only way you're getting a decent pizza in flyover country is if you live in a major city and/or rich college town, where young hipster entrepreneurs will make high-end pizza. otherwise nothing but goyslop everywhere

>>18344428

No. I refuse.

>>18344434
truth. i milk my own buffalo and offer two toppings, prosciutto and bacon from my pasture fed berkshires. i can't keep up with demand so we can only do about 40 pies a day. but at $30 a pop, i aint complaining.

>>18343715
You realize that most pizza place outside of big cities don't offer individual slices, right? Hell, I went to college in Iowa City and there was this place called Pizza on Dubuque that opened while I was there (98-02) and it was the first place I'd ever seen that offered single slices. Loved it.

>>18344464
I see zero problems with this. Sounds like you're the tranny in this situation. Tell us how your daddy hurt you.

>>18344428
Your sauce looks like it came out of a jar. The cheese is blown the fuck out, all the fat has separated and leaked out. That tells me the only reason your crust has any browning at all is because you left it in the oven for too long. It's probably not much better than chain pizza, honestly. What I'm saying is, you need to step your game up before you get to act smug.

Here's mine, just to pre-empt any "Well let's see yours!"

thats only true if you live in NY or CT

>>18341020
Angloid here, from my experience Dominos is better than the average takeaway pizza round here but it's also notably more expensive so most people just go for the local places anyway. It also helps that takeaways offer all kinds of crap that isn't pizza too.

>>18343644
right, also the money laundering kebap shop pizza for 3€ is better than any chain pizza you can get. you will just have to deal with diarrhea afterwards

>>18345956
had a---i wouldn't call it a salad--but it's this place that ships me food I can pop in an oven quickly and eat. It was more like something you'd give to your favorite piggers, shredded veggies but instead of using the vinegar crap it came with i tossed it in a bowl with italian dresssing. I had the mushiest brownest poop not even an hour later, just took a turd all over the place and really wiped myself clean.

Chain pizza is shit and you not being able to find a good spot isn't our fucking problem asshole. Figure your shit out OP. And fuck you.

I feel like pizza is one of the foods that are impossible to be bad, like even the cheapest of frozen pizzas are still edible at the very least. I'm a poorfag and ordering just a chain pizza was a huge luxury when I was a kid that we could only afford few times a year and it tasted like the best thing ever. The one in the pic looks amazing as well especially while high or drunk, no such a thing as too much cheese.

even shitty chain pizza places have better cheese than you're ever going to get without ordering in bulk from a restaurant supply store or living on the east coast US. As far as crust the average home cook would be thrilled if they could manage a dominos caliber crust. The only thing you'll likely manage to beat them on is sauce.

>>18347149
The absolute part is pretty important to this argument since the non-absolute version of:
>Some local restaurants are better than franchise restaurants.
Is something nobody would ever disagree with and doesn't reallt amount to saying anythingn all besides "local places can be both good and bad."

>>18349486
>dominos caliber crust
You just leave your dough in the freezer overnight, that's their secret, or I guess it was, since I remember a dominos commercial saying "We don't freeze our dough!".

i'm pretty sure my local pizzeria is a money laundering front.

>>18340980
Pizza in Sweden is not fit for human consumption

the local pizzeria a few minutes away from me ALWAYS undercooks their pizza, I would have to finish it off in my own oven which is fucking ridiculous so I stopped going there. There's another one about 15 minutes away that's pretty good but the parking situation there is ass and I don't like having food delivered so I don't go there often. I just go to Pizza Hut most of the time now. I don't care what people say, it's perfectly decent pizza.

>>18351756
>Christ, why are New Yorkers so full of themselves?
Well, for starters, we're better than you. Our food is better, we don't need to own cars, we have endless options for entertainment.

Right now I can walk outside my West Village apartment, turn the corner, and get a slice of world-class pizza. Or an expertly-made cocktail, or tacos from a taco truck, or French cuisine. Can you do the same?

>>18351155
Nah, quit trying to joke your way out of how completely wrong you've been.
Same as from the beginning: It's just a very simple and impossible to dispute fact that local shops are each doing their own thing *by definition* and therefore were never going to all be better quality than organized franchise shops with a degree of enforced consistency in what you can expect from them.

I fucking hate fly overs. If you actually visited the state you would know that 80% of New York is countryside. Most towns scattered throughout it's vastness have more cows than people.

This is from round the corner and one of the cheapest pizza places in the angloid city I live. Half the price of Domino's tasteless sloppa. Makes me feel bad for the pizza plebs around the world.

Don't know what to tell you mate I just grabbed the first picture I found. They have all the staple dry cured hams of Italy available, you can have bresaola or parma ham (and more) if you want. Almost everywhere else has shitty cash and carry ''''pepperoni'''' or sausage meat that looks like it was found dried out underneath the fridges. Yet still they manage to be more expensive. Hope they slowly go out of business.

>>18354670
Belgium here. You're right. Great cheese, great cured meats, wonderful vegetables and fruit. Just give them your own name instead of Euro ones. There's no shame in calling NY ham NY ham, instead of Parma or Serrano ham - when it's as good as the original.

>>18340980

>>18341020
True and real. In 40 years I have found only a single pizza place that is better than the big chains and it's in another state. Dozens and dozens, maybe as many as 200 places I've been to and they are all crap. They have terrible bread or sauce or cheese (but nobody can fuck up crisped pepperonis).

At least with John's, Noes or Hut you know exactly what you're getting, coast to coast, and it's passable in the same way McDonalds is, and even those 3 have ups and downs over the years. They've each been objectively good at some point in the past.

>>18341307
How do you not know what racism is?

>>18355699
Damn, guess some people unironically like goyslop. I have never eaten at a local pizza place that wasn't at the bare minimum better than corporate chains.

>>18356024
I mean, I guess I get it, there are some aspects of the pizza that corporate chains do perfectly, it's just that the ingredients are sawdust. So I guess it's the choice between a perfectly made pizza of sawdust, or an imperfectly made pizza with good ingredients.

>>18341962
I live in South Germany and we have a bunch of decent pizzarias here, run by actual Italians. Not a country-wide issue.

>>18356024
>I have never eaten at a local pizza place that wasn't at the bare minimum better than corporate chains.
That sounds like a ridiculous exaggeration given Papa John's, Domino's, and Pizza Hut all get me perfectly fine pizzas while almost every time I've tried a local pizza place in New Jersey, Texas, Arizona, or Massachusetts the result has been pretty low quality and definitely worse than a mainstream chain would have.
The chains are all just Marios in Mario Kart and provide middling products.
It's only when I've tried local that I've seen outright bad pizza that's dry, or even hard to chew, or has poor quality cheese or sauce, etc.
The chains have those basics figured out for the most part, but local is doing a blindfolded grab bag of anything from exceptionally good to extremely bad.
I get the impression you all know this and are lying for some weird political reason, like you feel as though you're fighting against globalism by intentionally underrating successful chains and overrating any literally who mom and pop store by default just because it helps you attack chains more.

>>18356143
Must just be unlucky. Or maybe it's just an American thing, since you guys have places that unironically sell horrible altoona lunch school pizza and are somehow still in business for years. In other countries bad restaurants are eliminated very quickly.

Any north Louisiana niggaz?

>>18356024
You're completely full of shit. This is obvious posturing or bait, you are a sheltered kid who wants anonymous strangers on the internet to think his taste and quality of local food is superior to everyone else.

>>18356318
Well, one things for sure, local pizza is usually loaded with toppings, whereas corporate chains give you a paper thin amount of meat/cheese.

I've never understood the local pizza meme. Pizza is pizza. And the locals are ALWAYS more than chains

PAfag here
I live about an hour away from the closest Marco’s pizza
Is it worth it?
Closest one to me is near the border between Ohio and PA

I'm not sure I get it, you guys yell about each other's pizza without actually being able to taste it? Is this thread essentially just wild speculation based on looks? What is the point of that?

Ordered dominos last night. I guarantee you it's better than 90% of the meme local pizzerias in your area.

>>18351831
>I personally prefer LaRosa's
LaGrossa's is terrible pizza. The sauce is too sweet, the crust is premade and frozen and they use provolone. Pizza is the worst thing you can get there, it's a chain just a local one. People in Cincinnati that say it's good have Stockholm syndrome and probably haven't had good pizza in their entire life.

It's over

Ah, this thread makes a lot more sense now that I realize the chain haters are non-American.
You guys seem to hate our franchise culture in general. Fucking bigots.

I get my pizza from Chef Oetker, he never lets me down

>>18340980
i work for food delivery apps and local pizzerias are the biggest scam in the city. One place in particular, for 2 large pizzas, they are about $24 each. And the toppings are always basic shit like 3 things. No rare ingredients, nothing. I truly despise that place and I feel disgusted every time I have to pick up an order from there.

As someone who has lived in a variety of different big cities and small towns, I have never heard a more accurate or succinct description of rural/small-town life.
There could be a total micro-collapse in that little po-dunk farming community, but they would sooner remain unemployed, eating nothing but unseasoned boomer diner food, and surrounded by people who look/dress like someone twice their actual age, than dare to seek work elsewhere, or *gasp* move away. They talk about family, community, "I can't turn my back on this place, these people", but no one really gives a fuck about each other in those places other than for community gossip - their primary fotm of entertainment. They're all just terrified of leaving their little, safe, predictable time capsule and entering the big scary world at large.

>>18357643
This just made me reflect a lot on my situation, anon.
Thank you.
I would add fear to comfort.

I find local places outside of cities ALWAYS use way too much straight canned tomato paste for sauce, and also ALWAYS overcook the pizza til its dried out, so the sauce ends up more like a dry, bitter, tomato-peel-flavored cake.
They also use weak ingredients like grocery-store-deli cold cuts for meat toppings, and put them under the cheese so they stay steamy-wet and soft, because that's how the fucking actual baby-boomer locals like their Pizza.
Also I don't know how they do it, but their Pizza crusts always just taste/feel more like a big slice of bread. I believe they make their own dough, sure, but I don't know if they actually know what Pizza dough is supposed to be like. They just learned how to make "home pizza" from their mom's cookbook.

>im poor and have a literal garbage job for garbage people and im mad about people with money to buy nice things

Why do most pizza places always use so much cheese ? Tomato sauce is cheaper.

>>18354839

No, dominos sucks. All chains suck except little caesers. At least their pizza is cheap.

>>18357510
For fuck's sake. "Too much of a good thing" is real, and any adult worth their salt has learned this at some point as a child.

Yeah, great pizza.

I live in Toronto and there's plenty of good pizza. Just loads of it. It's great to get once in a while. But Dominos is 50% off every Monday... and a 3 minute walk...

Domino's and Pizza Hut left many European countries because they can't turn a profit there.

Kill yourself, you worthless waste of space

All the "local" pizza places in Michigan serve floppy doughy pizza with bottom-tier toppings. Shit is gross. Goyslop for the obese trash who are stuck here in this miserable state.

>>18358573
Even if you find a good hipster-owned pizza joint in flyover country, they're going to want like $25 for a large. It costs me $8 for a large Dominos with 3 toppings. Why pay 3x more for a pizza that isn't 3x better

>>18340980
My local pizza joint is delicious. I always get sausage. Nothing else. I only need sausage. You must live in the Midwest out in the sticks. I lived in rural Illinois for awhile a few years ago. Not long after I got there I ordered some spaghetti with marinara sauce and I got egg noodles and ketchup.

mortadella, pistachio and bufala is typical italian pizza, the owner are likely italians or have been there yo study because this is something canonical in pizzeria from Rome downward in Italy, northcucks don't have the same variety.
also one thing you almost only find in Sicily and Naples are fried auabergines. in northern Italy those are roasted and it makes no sense. Americans/european people still dont know the pleasures of fried aubergine on pizza that we enjoy in Sicily
