"thick crust pizza" news and stories

DiGiorno Ultimate Focaccia Pizza

DiGiorno pizzaThis pizza is so new that DiGiorno doesn't even have any info about it at their web site, except a picture of the box.

This is the latest pizza in DiGirono's "Ultimate" line. They just keep releasing pizzas that are the ultimate this and the ultimate that. They should just go ahead and name a product This Is The Only Pizza You Ever Have To Buy, All The Others Suck. But I guess that would mean they couldn't release any new pizza products.

This is pretty good actually. It's incredibly thick and has a crunchy focaccia crust, and it's probably the heaviest pizza box I've ever carried out of the store. At first I thought it came with its own pizza stone or something. Right now it's in two flavors: cheese with sun-dried tomatoes and pepperoni with spicy red pepper flakes. I tried the former, and while the taste of toasted sun-dried tomatoes got to me after a while (definitely a topping you can't overcook), it was tasty and filling. Tonight I'm going to buy the pepperoni version (and kudos for someone finally releasing a pizza that has those red pepper flakes on top!)

How many different kinds of pizza are there in the U.S.?

The cool pizza blog Slice has a definitive (maybe) list of all of the different types of pizza that you can find in the United States.

Now, they go beyond just thin crust and thick crust and really get into regional differences, including New York Style, New York-Neopolitan, New Haven Style, Chicago Thin Crust, and many others. Not sure about some of the choices though. I mean, is "bar pizza" a definite style, even if it was invented in a certain place? And what exactly is Midwest Style, when that probably means a lot of different sizes and cooking methods and tastes?

And as someone says in the comments on that page, New England isn't represented at all! Still, it's a good list.
