      I just loved how Z came up with 4 Fruit + Cheese combo's that are ALL traditionally good and have been a food pair for decades to centuries lol. Watermelon + Feta Salad is a thing, Apple/Pear on cheese platters along with Grapes, Apricots and the like has been around forever and Pineapple has been paired with cheese a lot as well. Fruit + Cheese just works.

    Watching them eating pizza and the one thing that stuck in my mind is Mr. Z saying you wouldn’t put cheese and watermelon together. But ask any Greek and they will tell you that you can, as long as it’s feta cheese. Sweet and salty…the perfect combination!

    Yes! Take Mr.Z to Chicago! As a Chicagoan I have recommendations! Malnati’s, Uno, and Pequod’s are great (look up Pequod’s). Also, try the tavern style thin crust. It’s got a thin, crispy crust, cut into squares, ask the locals which is better. On the south side they say deep dish is for tourists, there’s a big north/south rivalry. Try different spots, ask locals, have fun!

    It's interesting that Mr. Z mentioned putting pears and cheese together. I've actually had a pear and gorgonzola pizza in Italy, and I've honestly never seen anything like it at any pizzeria anywhere else in the world. He also mentioned apples and cheese, which are sometimes combined in apple pie here in the US. I've even had and apple, cheddar and jalapeno pie. Aside from that, I've seen fruit and cheese served together as part of a multi-course meal in France. I've seen fruit and cheese paired as part of a fondue in Switzerland. I could keep going, but the point is, fruit and cheese are paired together all the time. Not sure why pineapple and cheese would be different. Oh, also, Philadelphia makes a pineapple and cream cheese spread that goes on bagels. And it's pretty tasty.

      1. Giordano's
      2. Chicago pizza is not just deep dish, thin crust cut into squares is what we usually eat.
      3. I've lived in multiple cities and Chicago Chicago has the best pizza. Buffalo is in second and WAY better than NYC Pizza.
      4. I was just in Italy and there are plenty of places that sell pizza with pineapple.
      5. MOD pizza is very similar to what you would find in Italy, so just think about that.

    If you want the best deep dish, Pequods is the gold standard. But true Chicago-style pizza isn’t deep dish. It is the super thin crust tavern cut pie like you get at Vito & Nick’s. You should definitely visit our fair city with Mr. Z. So much to enjoy here!

    I always give Italians a hard time cause of how prideful they seem to be, especially when it comes to judging their Italian American relatives!
    Our families were forced to migrate here due to war and famine, and they used anything they could to make something that reminded them of home. Sure, deep dish isn’t “traditional”, but it was invented out of necessity and nostalgia. Italy’s beautiful and we’ll always know they invented so much of what we’ve recreated, but it doesn’t make our version of”lesser”.

    Gotta remember the heritage of pizza in the US is from Italians and it's developed culturally within the states. We had a lot of Italian immigrants here in West Virginia and that's how we got the pepperoni roll as our state food. It was developed by an Italian for miners to easily carry their lunch into the mines. We have our local chain "The Pizza Place" that's been here for decades that was started and still own by Italian immigrants to WV. Greasy it may be but it's hands down the best in town with thick and thin crust. Lot's of German, Irish and Italian heritage in WV.

    About that Pompeii "Pizza": (quoted from AP News)
    "… They noted that key ingredients needed to make Italy's iconic dish - tomatoes and mozzarella - were not available when the fresco was painted some 2,000 years ago.
    Tomatoes were only introduced to Europe from the Americas a few centuries ago, and some histories have it that the discovery of mozzarella led directly to the invention of pizza in nearby Naples in the 1700s.
    The image is instead believed to be a focaccia covered with fruit, including pomegranate and possibly dates, finished with spices or a type of pesto, experts said. In the fresco, it is served on a silver plate and a wine chalice stands next to it."

    "Hawaiian Pizza" always cracks me up. Especially since, as I understand it - it's Canadian-Greek in origin. I read that it was actually created in Canada in 1962 by Sam Panopoulos, a Greek immigrant. (And yes...I DO like pineapple on pizza.)

    • @AzraelThanatos
      @AzraelThanatos ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The actual Hawaiian Pizzas tend to be something of an abomination...but pineapple on pizza can be rather good. Unfortunately, to me, most pizza places have a sauce that's to sweet for pineapple
      My favorite is a honey bbq sauce with pineapple, bacon, jalapeno, and red onion (sometimes with chicken as well...and a few times, when places have it, pulled pork).

    • @theodorehsu5023
