1. And yet, both make crappy pizza.

Please patronize your locally owned and operated Pizza place, not a chain franchise.

16. In some towns, all there is are chains.

Mine, included. Unless you want to pay $15 for an individual pie at the fancy Italian restaurant. Our other choices are frozen, take-and-bake grocery store deli, or make your own.

No matter where I’ve been, I’ve found that local pizzerias have always had the best food. Plus there’s the added benefit of supporting a local small business.

comes from our kitchen.

Don't think I've ever had Papa John's, but Little Ceasar's is nasty, especially the sauce.

3. I've never actually seen a Little Caesar's but I'd give it a try.

I'm not very picky though.

I do fondly remember a lot of amazing local pizza joints in the heavily Italian town I grew up in.

Papa John's sauce horribly to sweet, little ceasers way to greasy.

Dominoes or our family likes the kits you get in a box then put our own twists to them.

7. If you are looking for bad pizza, Little Caesar's appears to be the clear winner.

Cheaper, more socially responsible. The hair pieces and the pizza seem about even.

They're not too bad. Every now and then I'd get their four square piece lunch deal if I was in a hurry. Only topping was pepperoni, but that's okay.

I once liked Papa John's - this was before John showed himself to be the rat-fucker he is - but I think it was essentially because the pizzas were different, and that was a good thing. Then I realized that they weren't different-good.

11. The best pizza you will ever eat (in the U.S) is right here in New Haven...

It is famous for its pizza places. I like white clam pizza with mushrooms myself.

13. Clam pizza sounds great!

Bet it tastes great, too.

I am a huge fan of linguine and white clam sauce. Eat it up, YUM!!!

BTW, I like anchovies on my pizza, too. But probably not on clam pizza. Just as long as there's no pineapple on it.

Hope you are well, my friend. Miss your art posts. Nevertheless, always happy to see you here.

I doubt very seriously if you can even GET pizza with pineapple on it in New Haven!

My daughter is designing my art essays published here in a hard cover book. I have arranged them by the century in which the art was created.

If you like I can send you a copy when it's finished. I am giving the book to my friends and family and it is free. PM me with your address and I'll put you on the list (3 DUers already asked me for a copy). I'm titling it "Immutable Truth: essays on art 2014-2016".

owing the Detroit Red Wings. He also was a huge supporter of youth hockey. And, I actually don't mind his pizza. For five bucks, it's hard to beat. Not saying it's as good as the corner pizza joint back home, but it's as good, if not better than the other chains, for the money. Their commercials are a hoot, too. The only one who consistently comes close to them is the Georgia Lottery.
