GMMore 2784: Judging Pizza We Found On Reddit

Welcome to Good Mythical More. Um, join us as we look at pictures of pizzas. And decide if we would eat them. But first, we’re going to give away a gift card for 100 to the Mythical Store. Because Christina Wore that GMM merch out in the wild. Sometimes we find you. Sometimes we find you if you use hashtag merchicality. And then we’re gonna give you some money so you can get some more. And keep reppin it out there. Is that Hawaii? It’s a beautiful bush. Took, uh, out in the wild to, uh, literal place, huh? Yep, yep, yep. There’s snow up there. What is that? Where is that? That could be Hawaii. How old is Lando now? Just turned 15. Okay, so he– Right in the thick of it. Was the same age as Braden. Yep. But the last time I saw Lando, he was huge. Very tall. He grew a lot. Yeah. Did not look like our panel. That 14 to 15, like, 14 become 15, he just shot up there. But I would imagine– He’s not taller than me yet, but. But he’s pretty tall. Like, if he was next to Braden. Lincoln is taller than me. Lincoln is taller than me. Uh. There’s gotta be a bunch of 15 year old boys who are on that cusp, where half of them are waiting, and half of them are– Yeah. Yeah. Well, I– Waitin’ and wondering’. I, I think that the cusp is kinda like for a guy, for a boy. 14, like late 13, 14, 15. Yeah. So like, do Lando’s friends look– Yeah. Scattered? Yes. Okay. Scattered. Yeah. But, but, but by 15 there’s like, there’s a, mostly everybody’s turned a corner. Into what they’re going to be. Yeah. It start, it’s a big corner though. It’s, you’re turning it, I think all across 15. Until 16. Shepard did it during the pandemic, basically. He went upstairs into his room and he came back down a man. Right, two years later. Metamorphosis. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. He literally grew one foot in– A foot? In, like, 14 months. A foot?! He’s 16? 17? 16? He’s 16. That’s crazy. Lando– Is he doing his license certification? Yeah, very, very slowly. Lando probably grew that much that quickly, too. You may not know that if you don’t mark it on a doorframe somewhere. I wish we would’ve done that, but it’s too late. We did that in the kitchen, and I was like, holy moly, I cannot believe how quickly he grew. Yeah. That’s the thing you need to do. Thank God none of them are catching up with me. For their own sake. Okay, pizza. You like it. We all like it. But there’s some pizza you might not eat? I don’t know. That’s what we’re going to find out. I eat a lot of different pizzas. I don’t think he’s gonna turn down any of these. I don’t think so either. But what you’re saying, pizza yay or pizza nay, I believe. Uh, I’m gonna show you. I thought it was pizzyah or pizznah. Oh, yeah, yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah, that sounds better. Pizzyah or pizznah. Uh, these are from Reddit and elsewhere. Starting with this one. Well, this is, speaking of Hawaii. That doesn’t look good. We’ve got pineapple and we’ve got feta on top? It is feta, yes. That’s atypical, right? I’d try it. Feta on a Hawaiian? Feta on Hawaiian, yeah. I’ve never heard of it. I don’t hate feta, I don’t think. There’s also caramelized onions, and it looks like it’s a homemade dough. Yeah, it’s oblong in shape. And it’s put on the cutting board. You shouldn’t use those plastic cutting boards. Do I like feta? I know I don’t like goat cheese. Feta’s way more mild than goat cheese. Okay, I can do feta, but it looks like blue cheese crumbles, and I hate that. Well, you could probably just turn it upside down, and it’ll all fall off. Slough it off? It’s not, it’s not overcooked. I’m gonna eat it. I’m eatin it. Pizzyah! Pizzyah. Uh, it is from user. Mount 1100 on the pizza subreddit, and it is the most upvoted post over there. People said, I would absolutely destroy that. Looks beautiful and probably tastes divine. Yeah, yeah, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this. There’s nothing wrong with it, actually. I mean, it’s not pretty, but it looks tasty. Does anyone here do the thing where like you make your own pizza dough? Mm-hmm. And make your pizzas and have like one of those little pizza ovens, like little top tabletop pizza. I have a pizza stone. Because you know they make. Mm-hmm. Like they’re making these, like. We have a pizza stone. Pizza ovens that you can like, yeah, you might need a place outside. They’re outside. But they’re, they’re not that big and they’re not that expensive. Anybody get anybody doing this? I’ve had somebody swear by it. Yeah, well, Shepard’s been telling me. Cause you can make your own and then you have the pizza party and each person makes their own and very quickly it comes in and out and it’s a, it’s a pizza party vibe. Well, that’s the thing. Shepard’s, uh, at Shepard’s girlfriend’s house they have one of these. And he’s really making me feel inadequate because we don’t have one. He uses it over there? He’s like, Dad, we need to do this pizza thing. Because, you know, what we did for a while, you remember the, the, the Weber Grill attachment that I had? It was, I had an old charcoal Weber grill. Mm hmm. For many years, out here, that was my only grill. And there was this attachment you could put in the middle that made it into like a thousand degree pizza. It was like a, it was like a priest collar for a grill. And you would put big chunks of wood in the back and it was wood fire pizza and it got super hot. You’d have to keep turning it. I can do that with the green egg. Well, you should do that, but the thing I never did is I never made my own dough. And that seems to be the final frontier. It’s too far. Yeah, we’ve made our own dough, but we’ve also gotten it from, um, like tomato pie, or– You can get raw dough from tomato pie? Yeah, which it’s like, if you like pizza from a place and they sell dough, it’s gonna taste better if you get the dough from there. Huh. Yeah. So it’s like the real dough. Yes. Yeah. Okay. Real dough. Okay, how about this one? Ooh, now this is pretty. We have burrata and pepperoni cups? Yes. Ricotta. Ricotta! I love ricotta. I love burrata. I love, what’s the green stuff, I wonder? The green herb is not specified in the post. The whiter the cheese, the more you like it. Mm hmm. I– Cottage is the whitest cheese. I’m in love with this, because you can just pluck one off and eat it. It looks like basil. It looks like thin, shredded basil. When you talk like that, that gives me PTSD from that time that, we got pizza, with friends. And then we left half of the pizza in the box. And I, of course, was thinking, well, when I get hungry again, I’m gonna eat more of that pizza. And when I went back to it, you had eaten the toppings off of half of the pizza. Well. I don’t like hearing you talk about just taking things off of it. You can take, if you take a slice, you have a slice, you have dominion over that slice. But you do not have dominion over the whole pie, my friend. It was, I thought it was that kind of party. You thought it was the kind of party where you could just de top a pizza? I mean, there was still some left, right? Yeah, I was gonna eat it! I mean– And then you were like, well you could eat the dough. You took, you didn’t just take the toppings, you like grabbed cheese. You hand, you handfulled cheese into your mouth. I mean, it might have been 1am though. By that point. It was the next day. That’s why I was getting ready to enjoy it. Yeah. It was the next day. That’s, oh, it’s the next day. Nobody wants this. It’s the next day. It doesn’t count. The calorie count starts over at one. At at 12:00 AM, 12. Yeah. 12:00 AM. I’m sorry man. I’m sorry. That’s all I’m looking for is an apology. I would eat this pizza. This is so good. Smash. How about this one? Uh, so we got two types of cheeses. Well, this is a half and half. Do you know what it is, though? This is a lover’s pizza. What? What do you mean by that? I mean that you and your lover don’t agree on all flavors, and so you, but you only want to make one pizza. So cheddar and steak and green peppers. This is like two ways to serve a thing that this is an homage to. Yeah, so this is a Philly cheese pizza, and we’ve got the traditional provolone on the right, and then we’ve got Cheez Whiz on the left. Or American, maybe? It’s a cheddar. But everything else is the same. I wholeheartedly endorse this. That’s cool. Especially if you cut it the other way so you can get both. Smash. I’m just gonna smash. Smash and pass. Let’s go back to that. Smash. Smash. We’re gonna smash it. Okay. Next. It’s a thick daddy. Ooh, this needs some description. It needs some sauce. It is gravy mashed potatoes. and dough from scratch. Pulled and shredded turkey meat topped with parsley, salt, and pepper with a garlic parmesan crust. So it’s a Thanksgiving pizza. Pulled turkey? So it’s, like, a leftover. I think it’s a Thanksgiving pizza. Pass. I’m a ham, man. If it was chicken, maybe. I certainly would take a bite of this. I don’t know. I know that it’s not as good as regular pizza. But, I mean, you got the bread, you got the potatoes, you got the gravy, and you got the turkey. You need some cranberry in there somewhere to really, really set this off. That’s the missing ingredient. But I’d eat it, Pat. I’d smash. Yeah. Next. Weird. So those are This is a Big Mac. Those are buns? Yeah, this is a cheeseburger pizza. This is a restaurant pizza from Kravet in New York. You don’t need the buns. But why are you putting buns on top? You have a crust. You don’t need buns. Okay, I think I’ve met my match. I’m passing. It also has, uh, fried eggs on the burgers as well. Are those whole burgers that you just take off and eat? Yeah. They have bottoms too? Oh, I don’t know about the bottoms. Well, maybe in a group, this would be good. Oh, there’s no bottoms. I’m passing on this crap. You can’t, if you can’t take the buns off and eat them separately, I don’t want buns on top of crust. I guess it makes kind of a sandwich. Pizza crust is so good. And it just, the stark contrast in how bad a bun is to a pizza crust when you’re eating them together. They shouldn’t be mixed. They shouldn’t be mixed. It’s like making a sandwich with like, something really good on the bottom and something bad on the top. But a pizza. We’re gonna pass on this one. We’re gonna let somebody else eat it. What about this nicely colored specimen? Ugh, eggplant? Truffle pesto base. sliced garlic mozzarella, chilies, mixed wild mushroom, and smoked burrata. All that description sounds great. If you told me that, and then you gave me a blindfold. Hmm. The, oh, okay. The truffle, the blackness is concerning, but I believe it’s the truffle. But also, those cross sections on top, that’s a whole slice of black truffle. That is huge. That’s a lot of truffle. That’s a lot of truffle. That’s some troufble. Truffle trouble. Too much. Pass. I’d take a bite. I’d take a bite. And then after that bite you’d be like Whooooooooooooooo. Who’s had good pizza lately around these parts? Where’s the best pizza in LA right now? De La Nonna? Pisano? That’s very good. We’ve been doing Town pizza. Which is pretty good. But it’s not, that’s not even a pizza place. What? Yes it is. Well, I mean, they’re not a pizza parlor. Town? Parlor? Yeah, town. Town Pizza. I believe the full name is Town Pizza. Oh. Then, okay, I’m thinking of a different town. Wait, there’s another. There’s a newer place. Hold on, I gotta look. I’m getting hungry, though. I do like that Prince Street. You know, I know it’s different, the Sicilian style, that’s like the square and it’s a little bit thicker. Yeah. That’s good pizza. Like a Detroitish situation. Sicilian, you know, it’s like, it’s thicker, it’s a different thing. It’s like, you have to be in the mood for it, you have to know you’re getting that type of pizza. If you think you’re getting like New York style, you’ll be disappointed. But, it’s a good slice. It’s like somewhere in between Chicago and New York. It sounds good. Uh, Prince Street. We had it in, it’s originally from New York. Like, Prince Street is known for its Sicilian, and then they just, they have at least one location out here now. When you say New York pizza, I always think about that food tour we did, and we got, um, artichoke pizza. Artichoke pizza in Greenwich Village. Me and Shepard talked about that artichoke pizza this weekend while we were hiking. My kids always talk about that pizza. Cause I don’t know how it came up, but he was like, They loved it for some reason. We gotta get that, we gotta go back to that place in Greenwich Village and get the artichoke pizza. You know, Slane reminded me. Town closed. Town pizza closed. Yeah, you did not patronize it enough. Well, no, I can’t remember, I can’t remember the name of the, of the new pizza place. Although, have you had Hail Mary? That’s good. I’ve heard about it. That’s really good. I gotta text Cassie the, uh, I gotta text Cassie. Hail Mary full of cheese. Well, speaking of Hail Mary, here’s the next pizza. I mean, that’s very artistic. But it’s, I mean, I mean, I don’t want to eat Jesus on the cross. I mean, good gosh. Yeah. That doesn’t really make me hungry. No, yeah, that would be That is who. That is who. Very artistic. Pass! I don’t think I’m gonna eat this. I don’t think I can. I don’t think I can bring it myself. Pass, pass, pass! Okay, now we get into a different style situation here. Whoa, that’s tall! That right there. Smash. Nope, pass. Too much. Too much. Take a bite of it? It doesn’t come together. You don’t like Chicago style pizza? That is more than Chicago style. It’s just glomming cheese. I mean, you know, it, yeah, it’s Chicago deep dish pizza homemade. It’s not just a pizza pie, man. It’s a pizza pie. It’s a different food group. I do not consider them the same food group. I thought that was more extreme. I would, it’s, it’s too heavy for me. I’d pass. What if you take a bite of it, though? That’s not what we’re as You can’t We’re not asking, would you take a bite? We’re asking, would you smash it? Eat at least a whole slice. If that was the only thing being served, you’d be like, I’m gonna wait until later and No, I would Yeah. I’ve seen you tear up a Chicago style pizza. But there’s other options. Oh, this is a buffet? Yeah, it’s a buffet. Everything that we’re being presented with. Okay, well I’m gonna smash that. Le Sorted. That’s the name of the place. That’s what I meant to say. Lassorted. Yeah, yeah. That’s good. And they also make a giant cookie. Oh. That you have to have. How about this one? This is hard to figure out what’s going on. Well that’s an arm. Is this a flatbread? More? What’s the green? Green hot sauce pizza. Dough. Dough is a very basic one we made with instant yeast. Hot sauce was homemade using a mix of green peppers of varying heat. Topped it with Grana Padano cheese and low moisture mozzarella baked in a carbon steel pizza pan in a convection oven. I think this would actually be really good. It’s more of a flat bread because it doesn’t have that. tomato sauce. I mean, I know that’s not really the distinction. It’s almost like a quesadilla without a top. You know what I’m saying? Yeah, it’s very far afield. But just as a, like, cheesy bread with hot sauce? Sign me up. Smash. I’ll see you. I’ll be over there soon. I’d I would lightly smash it. Okay, we have to get through these two at least. Um Oh. What? That’s a, that is a lobster claw. Oh no, it’s a crab claw. It’s a lobster pizza. It’s lobster. Uh, for those seeking indulgence, the lobster pizza is a true gem. Succulent lobster meat paired with a delicate white sauce creates a luxurious combination that elevates pizza to a new level. Smash! I would smash that. I like seafood pizzas. And finally, this one. Oh! Is that a, is that a chicken? It, it, it… My first pizza in the Uni 3 oven. Yeah, well we’re not, I mean. I’m sorry. Is this user error? I mean, when your pizza looks like a raw chicken piece. Like a thigh and a leg. I don’t know, it could have a calzone quality to it. You would still eat this, right? Good of a calzone quality. Smash. Smash. Yeah! I bite right into that raw part. Oh my gosh! The raw part. Oh! Oh! Oh!
