What do you think is an overrated food? (lemmy.world)

Lobster is so so so overrated. 75% of the weight is shell. You could get tiger or argentinian shrimp for the same price per pound if not cheaper and you get 3 times more edible meat by weight.

Lowkey I think pizza is a bit overrated.

I mean it’s still good, but there are better foods.

Pizza is probably my favorite food - you can buy/make it 5 times and have 5 totally different things- different crusts, different toppings, dinner, breakfast, dessert, ... For the last year i have been stuck on prosciutto and fig. When we do pizza night we make 4-5 different ones and i save that one for last because it's so good.

Prosciutto and fig sounds like some real I-Talian shit.

I could go for that. I’ll have to give it a try next time I make some za.

I also really like pizza. I just think it’s a bit overhyped. Haha

Prosciutto wrapped cantaloupe is awesome.

Fig & Pig pizza is so awesome! Sweet, salty, and carby! 🤤

I go a step further and usually just attempt to veto Italian if “where do we want to eat” is brought up.

Again - it’s good - and I’ll eat it. But cmon.

I could eat Italian food, as in actual Italian or Americanized Italian food (not Olive Garden), for my entire life. S-tier cuisine.

We talk the world how to eat!

[–] scott@lem.free.as 2 points 2 weeks ago

"Talk"? Did you mean "taught"?

Yes, agreed. My comment is in reference to specifically American pizza.
