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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 12 points 2 years ago permalink fedilink source parent [–] Psythik@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (3 children) 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago You only need to be a cosco member and hopefully not have any previous experience with pizza permalink fedilink source parent [–] CrowAirbrush@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago 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. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years 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. permalink fedilink source parent [+] Zip2@feddit.uk 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 1 year ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] suction@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 child) 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] vxx@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (2 children) I've seen people rolling their whole pizza to eat it like a Lahmacun.
