pizza as an appetiser vs as a meal

pizza is apparently a first course in Italy.

pizza is eaten whole by one person in Germany.

 

In America, we would split a pizza between two or three.

 

American pizza, first off, is an abomination. let’s be real.

 

it can however also the best guilty pleasure.

 

But the American pizza dough is incredibly thick. If the bottom of pizza for the US is like a slice of bread, the pizza in the EU could be considered a soft cracker.

 

when you get here, you’ll understand.

 

I am one for the cracker

can we talk about the bacon I had to eat in SA?

The bacon in South Africa is NOT THE SAME as bacon in America or Germany.

in order of goodness it goes:

  1. america
  2. germany
  3. anywhere else
  4. South Africa

Okay you would think that German bacon would be legit because their main traditional meat resource is pig. But American bacon is cut just right. in Germany, I find the bacon too thin. but okay honestly the taste is better. it tastes real.

 

BUT SOUTH AFRICAN BACON IS WEIRD. The cut seems to me to be different. its extraordinarily thick in comparison to the bacon I know elsewhere. and it seems kind of close to a center cut bacon..

 

have you ever had center cut bacon? you know what I mean?

 

it’s just not the same.
