The pizza is known for its distinctive cold toppings which are added after the pizza is cooked. It was nicknamed “The Poor Man’s Cheesecake” in the 1940s. In 2018, DiCarlo said he did not remember why the pizza was originally prepared that way but speculated that it may have been to avoid burning the toppings. The style became a part of local cuisine in Ohio and West Virginia, and was replicated by several other chains. However, its method of preparation is polarizing, and it has been negatively compared to Lunchables.
It oddly reminds me of something I had in Florence, Italy in the late '90s. I didn’t speak Italian more than enough to order food (though I could get by in French for the most part for the simple interactions I was doing), so I don’t know exactly what it was, but it looked like what is in that wiki. I grew up in Ohio but never had that style (which I think is more in the eastern part of the state).
Oh I wish it were just a joke…but it’s very real.
🤣😂🤣
Aight gotta be a culture that practically eats raw dough [pizza] too then
It looks like if an adult was banned from buying Lunchables pizza, but still wanted that same disappointment.
Except the crust and sauce are hot, which makes the cheese warm.
I say don’t knock it until you try it. I love it
Mmm, warm cheese…… lol, no thank you.
Never heard of Steubenville, but I’m going to blame this war crime on the people of Pittsburgh nearby. That sounds like some Pittsburgh bullshit.
Steubenville has more than one Wikipedia page, and not all press is good press.
Yeah immediately after seeing it was from Steubenville I remembered that… Absolute hellhole
Ok that looks terrible especially compared to the Dayton style that’s right nearby.
Steubenville has produced nothing but disappointment and tragedy
That made my stomach hurt looking at it
Only in… nah, I shan’t say it.
