You use the crust to build huts. Obviously.

I was wondering why the arrow head had something that looks like an aura surrounding it. Turns out the head is just a pizza cutter.

JUST a pizza cutter?

[–] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 11 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Crust is important to counter the greasiness of the center. When I eat pizza, I alternate between the center and the crust so that the average mouth feel on any two consecutive bites remains roughly the same.

Do the old fold and drip.

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 hours ago

I just add toppings that counter it. Like pickled jalapeño.

What kind of person leaves the crust? Pizza ain’t pizza without the crust.

[–] 5too@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

Kids tend to leave the crust because it doesn't have all the texture and flavor of the cheesy, saucy main part. My kids will happily eat crusts if offered after they've left the table, but it doesn't occur to them to eat it when there's more pizza to eat!

Probably people eating crappy or stale pizza, a good fresh pizza has delicious crust, but let it sit and it turns tough, dry and chewy

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Yes the only time I would leave the crust is if the pizza is old and stale, and it needs to be really stale, basically as long as it's not harder than my teeth I'll still eat the crust.

[–] kuberoot@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Somewhat stale pizza can also be quickly improved by throwing a slice into an air fryer for a couple minutes, even crisping up the crust a bit

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 hour ago

Yeah that's nice but I also enjoy cold pizza out of the fridge tbh. Just that issue with the crust after 24/48h

What sound does a Pizza beast make?

Absolutely no problem, I love the crust!

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Me too unless its that greasy "greek style" garbage that was probably frozen for months.

[–] ladicius@lemmy.world 30 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The crust is for the garlic cream.

[–] refurbishedrefurbisher@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

I have to try making this instead of garlic butter next time. Is it just garlic, salt, and heavy whipping cream? Or maybe Mexican cream?

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 17 points 14 hours ago

Crusts are breadsticks

Tomato sauce!

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I'm going to start a fight now by revealing that I dip the crusts in milk sometimes.

[–] sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 hours ago

Half condensed milk, half sugar, add vinegar until it thickens stirring well, add some garlic to taste.

Great dipping souce. Halifax donair sauce also fantastic with garlic fingers
