I don't know any European that would only eat a slice of pizza instead of the whole thing.

The only time an European eats a single slice of pizza is the next morning after they have overestimated their ability to devour the entire thing.

I'm on my way home from Amsterdam atm, a slice of pizza was €10.

I skipped that and left hungry, because i'm buying two pizza's and a big bottle of coke when i get home in about an hour.

Damn, you can get an entire large pizza for $10 at Costco. Granted, your only options are pepperoni or cheese, and the quality isn't the best (far from the worst, though), but it'll feed 1-3 people.

Still, I miss the days when you could a large pizza with unlimited toppings at various chain restaurants for $10. But that was over 10 years ago.

You only need to be a cosco member and hopefully not have any previous experience with pizza

[-] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

A large Costco pizza will feed way more than 1-3. I’m not even trying to act like bird food eater here. I’m 225lbs and 6’2” so I know how to eat.

That said, I absolutely love Costco pizza and my safe zone is like 2 slices because they are enormous.

Domino's still regularly has €5 pizza's on monday for pickup, at my old job during the late shift we had €17 per person to spend on food and 2 people in the shift.

We used to order 2 family xxl with their thursday 50% off for second pizza and a regular sized cheeseburger pizza+ drinks for that €34.

We both ate half our xxl and shared the regular size one, the remainder came home to feed our wives while the company covered the cost.

They even paid us a pretty decent wage too, but unfortunately the head office decided to build a new automated warehouse right when covid started that ended up only doing 30% productivity and they closed us down as a result.

Yes, but you’re forgetting that’s just a light snack to stop them from starving to death on the way home.

I also don't know any Italian who eats their Pizza by slicing it up, folding the slice, and shoving it into their mouthes, instead of with knife and fork, like a civilized person.

[-] vxx@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I've seen people rolling their whole pizza to eat it like a Lahmacun.

In fact it was only one person but I've seen it quite often because we saw daily.

[-] suction@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

That was in Italy? An Italian person did that?

That slice comes from a pie almost half a meter in diameter. That single slice has the surface area of most European pizzas.

[-] vxx@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Nope, you deerly underestimate the hunger for pizza over here.

[-] raef@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I live in Germany.

You underestimate these Costco pizzas. On the 1600 square centimeters, they pile half a kilo of cheese
