Bread, marinara sauce, some veggies on top, maybe even a little pepperoni. Is that really so bad? I get so tired of certain foods being vilified by dieters and health food snobs when they seem harmless enough to me. Not every meal has to be organic avocados drizzled with virgin olive oil to be acceptable.
that is a good question: I am guessing, calling it fast food would be a better identifier. Of course, the meat part of pizza is usually processed meats, which would fall into the "junk food" category. A lot has to do with who is making it and what is on it. Certainly veggies pizza isn't what I think of as "junk food"
A "slice" of pizza isn't a defined quantity. I've had a single "slice" that was the size of an entire small pizza, and I've had three "slices" that didn't amount to much at all. When I worked at a pizza joint people would order a pizza size based on how many "slices" were in that size. The small and medium pizzas had eight slices; the large had twelve. The slice from a large pizza was smaller than a slice from a medium pizza.
Lol. When I was younger and worked at a pizza joint I would have people ask how many slices were in a large pizza and sometimes my response would be how many slices do you want there to be in your large pizza? When you get to 16 or so they are more like "slivers" though.
Because it's high in fat, salt and calories... and low in any nutritional value.
If it's high in fat and calories... then its necessarily high in nutritional value. There seems to be a misunderstanding about what a nutrient is and what nutritional value is.
A pizza-only diet would be high in nutrition, or nutritional value, but not diverse nutrition nor well-balanced nutrition.
I'm reading this correctly....a mushroom instead of the pizza crust? Tell me it ain't so
LOL. If you eat low carb, which many of us do, you can put the toppings, in abundance, on anything that will hold them, and it is just as good....really.
Things I've used instead of pizza crust... A cube steak, a chicken breast, a hamburger, a big mushroom, slice of zucchini or eggplant.
That's cool, but a slab of meat/a vegetable piled with vegetables is...a slab of meat/a vegetable piled with vegetables. It's not a pizza.
Not saying it's not perfectly fine to eat...but it's not a pizza.
