  NYC pizza is the baseline

    I seriously doubt it’s the most common pizza sold.

    It’s thin crust nature makes it economical for selling hot slices, but horrible for delivery and for reheating.

      It’s not even “thin crust” pizza. That’s St. Louis style.

      Incorrect; it reheats fine in a countertop convection oven (or a cast iron or carbon steel pan on the stovetop if you know what you’re doing)

        Yes, and pizza with real crusts reheat fine in any oven.

        Incorrect; pizza does not need to be reheated, as it is delectable cold.

    As much as I love Jon Stewart, NYC has the worst pizza in the country. Don’t get why people love a limp pizza with the wrong ratio of bread/sauce/cheese. I’ve had better school lunch pizza than your average New York slice. Chicago style thin crust or Midwestern thin crust, or neapolitan are all worlds better pizza.

      WTF is “Chicago style thin crust?” Or have you mixed that city up with St. Louis?

      If what you’re looking for in a pizza is bread, sounds like you’d prefer Sicilian.

        Chicago style pizza was originally tavern style thin crust. This deep dish nonsense is a modern thing.
