I'd be willing to bet they're right that bacon being common is a new thing.

I remember back in the day, my friend being disgusted by the fact that my family would order the Chicken Parm pizza from Jet's, because apparently they had never heard of a pizza place offering chicken as a topping. These days, I think it's become common.

Yeah, I'm from StL, and I grew up with Imos, but I'm really getting sick of it. There's much better St. Louis style pizza out there. Half the time, Imos is either way overcooked and near-burnt, or way undercooked and completely limp. Toppings are shit, everything else on the menu is bad. Maybe it's changed over time, but I never want it anymore.
The whole thin crust thing is fine if you actually make decent food, but Imos is shit. They've franchised way out into rural areas, and I doubt there's any real quality control on those.

The chain no longer exists. There is no franchise just old locations that kept the name but do their menu themselves. Remaining Burger Barons have nothing but historic relation to each other.

I lived in Edmonton for a bit in 2013 and there was one near where I lived in one of the city's slummy areas and that shit was legit. Place was rundown as hell but the Mushroom Burger was great. That was almost a decade ago though.

Howies is better than my nearby dominos and pizzahut in Pensacola.

Have to admit that sometimes the pizza was just like the Gordan Ramsey shit. Still somehow better than dominos though.

Yea.

It's pretty fucking good.

My favorites were the seafood restaurants out at perdido and other beach. There was a great cajun shop there as well. Pensacola is spoiled I fucking miss it.

the more run down and shitty a burger baron is, the better the food is
the strip mall locations are a disgrace

That's because pizza with too many toppings just doesn't taste good for some reason.

I worked there. They never fully clean out the pans they bake the pizza, all they do is paper towel them. Thats probably not universal but they were watching us through the cameras and theyd get on you if you fucked up but nobody ever said anything about the pans so I can assume the owner was in on it, the manager told me to do it. So in all likelihood youve probably eaten a good amount of burnt on 30 day old pizza

not true HH just doesnt have the quality of ingredients to make it shine. Im pretty sure I had a slice of the supreme at some point and there was something about it I couldnt put my finger on on why it wasnt very good. That poster answered that question

Last time I was at a Cici's Pizza the dad at the table next to mine was smacking his kids under the table to get them to calm down. Cheap food at least.

This; St Louis-style sucks, and the only people I see defend it are St Louisans who have been stockholmed into liking it because they grew up with it. The city has better specialties anyways--t-ravs and gooey butter cake are both legit, and St. Paul sandwiches aren't bad either
