I recently noticed a pizza photo somepne had posted and recalled a picture of this slice of Chicago pizza heaven. It's from Peqods. And yes, it was real, and it was spectacular
Galloping god! My hunger glands just kicked into warp drive!!!!
Pure trash! That is not pizza!
It's getting my taste buds confused!

So right!! Before I retired I had been to Chicago a number of times on business. I tried their version of pizza.......once.
I saw a documentary years ago, on New York Pizza vs Chicago Pizza. Many years ago there was a Restaurant in my community, closed permanently now, because Chain Pizza Shops came in with cheaper pizza. I went to that restaurant, and it was called the Deep Dish Pizza, Chicago Style. It was scooped out and put on a plate. You ate it with a knife and fork. It was very good, I must say. But, New Yorkers frown on eating pizza with a knife and fork. Just as many Chicago Hot Dog Shops, don't believe ketchup belongs on hot dogs. Regional differences. I am neither a New Yorker nor Chicagoan.
I originally took the picture to taunt very jealous relatives in PA.

Italians eat pizza with a knife and fork, but their pizza is real, not that disgusting concoction pictured.
Boy that looks good. Chicago has lots of great foods. I got hooked on the Chicago style hot dogs in the airport. I flew home from a work site each week and always made time for a hot dog in the airport.
I lived in Chicago for 50 years. Nothing can compare with a deep-dish Chicago pizza from Lou Malnati's or Pizzaria Uno's. Any Hogger from the Chicago area will agree with me.

Agreed!
NY pizza is bread with tomato sauce on it.
I like my pizza NY style, and my hotdogs Chicago style!
