I've already said enough honest but controversial things about pasta, football, and pizza to be banned for life from entering Italy, so I might as well add this: Chicago style pizza is in fact quite good, despite my usual preference for thin crust pizza.

EDIT: Downvoted by Meloni

    "Chicago Style" pizza isn't deep dish, it's square cut tavern style pizza. Yeah, deep dish isn't that great.

    The hot dog is indeed Chicago style and it's good

    I don't know what's in the lower left but it looks good

    That's Italian beef in the lower right and it's really good.

    So 1 out of 4 is Chicago style

    Inside Chicago the thin tavern is “Chicago style” outside of Chicago deep dish is “Chicago style”

    I know it sucks but you can’t change everyone’s mind.

    I will throw hands over the disparagement of a hot beef dipped

    I thought the square cut pizza was Detroit style?

    Everybody's allowed their opinion, but you can fuck all the way off talking shit about Chicago dogs! The combination of beef fankfurter, poppyseed bun, quality mustard, relish, chopped onion, tomato, sport peppers, celery salt... It sounds weird, but people who try it usually love them! You have to not be obsessed with ketchup though. One of the things I really miss from working in Chicago for a bit...

    And when something is a crime against god and man we call it “Altoona-style”

    I don't want to know what an Altoona-style hot dog would look like.

    Humanity is lucky there isn't a "Florida style" used nation wide.

    Ok well no, it is not just meth. We can make fun of it without needing to make things up. Geez.

    It's meth, and pepperoni. It's meth and hot wings. Meth with chicken and ranch. It's a whole lot of things. Not just meth!

    I'll take a deep dish pie or that dog. Fuck y'all if you're a hater.

    I feel like the food is really a strong point for Chicago? I get da Bears, totally, but the food? Not sure

    Chicago has some of the best food in the world. One week there and you have to let your belt out a notch.

    I only ever hear people hate on deep dish who have never tried it (from a good restaurant) before 🤔
