fresh dough, a fresh tomato sauce with a hint of basil, delicious toppings and of course, fresh, gooey cheese
Dough, tomato sauce, toppings AND cheese? This Florida-style pizza sounds right up my alley.

What the fuck is this.

I also like how that article doesn't show you what it is.

Google image searches tell us that Florida-style pizza is... I dunno, looks like a deep-fried calzone. That article didn't mention anywhere in it (or showed) that it was deep-fried. Also that article had exclamation marks in it.

That was not a good article.

It's Florida, expect no less.

I had never heard of regional pizza styles other than Chicago, New York or Rochester. This is a new one on me

Other popular styles are Detroit (in a steel pan, sauce on top) and, arguably the best one, New Haven (peccorino instead of mozz, blackened, crispy thin crust).

I gotta get back, I gotta get back to Rochester and just eat pizza for a week. God, that is amazing and I can't get it or anything like it out here. :(

But it was funny to use your quote. Sorry, no pizza this time, it's one of those packed-to-the-walls social weekends. No time for pizza

I understand. I ... I just hope the next time you indulge you think of me.

Pizza is so bad in Everett, WA that Little Caesars (stuffed crust is less salty than the Hut) and frozen pizzas (done up) have become acceptable. I will say that frozen pizza has gotten way better in the last 20 years that I've mostly avoided it, even Safeway brand is acceptable.

Or your standards (and taste buds) have deteriorated that badly over the years that they are now acceptable.

I gotta tell you.. Wegmans brand frozen pizza is pretty amazing. If I lived anyplace other than Rochester that only had shitty pizza, I would eat Wegmans frozen pizza constantly.
