I agree. American pizza has about as much to do with pizza in Italy as
Taco Bell has to do with real Mexican food.

Costco has a new pizza out that is superb. Deep dish, lots of cheese and sausage. They're 'loaded'
pizza is as good as I've had anywhere. Of course, I don't live in southern Maryland.

As Greg said, American pizza has about as much to do with pizza in Italy
as Taco Bell has to do with real Mexican food.

I've eaten several pizzas in Italy. None were as good as the Costco pizza. In fact, none came close.

My appetite for *real* Italian pizza went away after my first encounter.
Give me the real American Italian pizza; or even the real Greco American
Italian pizza every time.

I had a pizza pie in Italy a few decades ago. If I recall correctly, It
was a pie crust filled with diced tomatoes heated in a brick oven. Yum.

If you're really lucky, they'll put a fried egg on top.

So far all the reports on *real* Italian pizza haven't been too
flattering. But Loogie disagrees.

Gee, now I'm kevin, plume, loogy, and now someone named "Harr"...... IF
you were talking to me, as I stated, I sometimes eat at a restaurant
that is owned and ran by a master pizzaiolo . Trained in Italy. There
are very few in the United States. Do they have classically trained
pizzaiolos at Costco?

We lived in Italy, near Naples for a little over two years. Our
favorite pizza joint was a little dive in the town that Sophia Loren
was born. (contrary to her bio, she was *not* from Rome).

The pizzas were prepared by hand manipulating and spinning the dough.
Then it was soaked in olive oil and some leafy something was applied,
following with tomatoes and a small amount of cheese. More olive oil,
then it was put into a brick oven with a wood fire. Cooked for about
45 seconds, removed, folded in half with oil dripping out all over the
place and served.

Soak a piece of bread in olive oil, put in toaster oven, remove and re soak, add a spinach leaf and
shredded cheese. Serve.

Yuck.
