The Art of Eating Pizza

Hungry for something and in a hurry, but don’t know what to get? Try pizza, it’s a fast food that isn’t as processed as other fast food and it’s delicious. I will be giving you a guide for the man/woman who doesn’t know how to eat a slice of pizza, it’s really very simple.

You begin by driving or walking over to the local pizza parlor. Once you have made it there it is time to order, but before you order your pizza it is crucial to decide what toppings if any you want on your slice of pizza. There are many toppings including, pepperoni, sausage, meatballs, extra cheese, broccoli, pineapple, anchovies, green peppers, and red peppers just to name a few. Along side of toppings there are also specialty slices like, salad slices, baked ziti slices, taco slices, barbeque chicken slices, and ravioli slices. There aren't that many though and every parlor has their own specialties. Once you have chosen the topping or specialty slice that fits you best, it is time to choose a drink. Most pizza parlors will have a drink cooler with varying sodas and fruit drinks in it. After you have decided on what type of pizza and drink you want, it is time to pay for the pizza. After you have paid there is another decision to be made, what spice you want on your pizza if any. There are many spices including garlic, parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, oregano, etc.

Now that your pizza is ready to be eaten it is time to begin. But wait! It could be very hot so give it a little bit of time to cool, 30-45 seconds will do( you might also want to get a plate to place the slice on ). To start off fold the pizza vertically from one end of the crust to the other. This will keep the pizza warm for longer and could make eating it somewhat faster. Now it is time to take a bite, begin at the tip and eat your way down to the crust, being sure to get a napkin and wipe the excess grease from your face, hand, or clothes if you are unlucky. During this time you should also be taking sips of your drink but try not to finish it on the first slice because many times people will get one or two slices, sometimes even three. Once you reach the crust (some people’s favorite part and some peoples most hated part) the way you eat the pizza changes. You should now begin to eat from the top of the crust to the crease at the bottom that was caused by the folding of the pizza. If you are not full from the first slice, go order another one, maybe of a different variety this time, be creative with what you get. You may get bored if you eat the same slice over and over again.

Another great way to get pizza is to have it delivered, unlike many other fast foods pizza can be delivered or picked up. This can also be a somewhat complicated process, to begin you first need to get the phone number of the local pizza parlor. Once you have called them it is time to place your order, hopefully when ordering you have had pizza before or you might not get what you expect. You need to give the person who is taking your order, your address and phone number, and then your order, and within thirty to forty minutes your pizza should be at your door and ready to be eaten.

At the end of the eating process you should feel very content, at least very comfortable because pizza as many people know is comfort food. It is food almost everyone enjoys.
