Pizza pie?

Pizza pie? Who calls pizza that? 121.45.46.156 09:34, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, That's Amore." — VulcanOfWalden 11:33, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So one person called it pizza pie then :-) Wouldn't say it's in standard usage Stjarna 14:17, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's the standard term for a unit of pizza, besides the word "pizza" itself. Restaurants use it frequently; it helps distinguish a slice from a whole pizza. besides, that's what a pizza is: a pie made with sauce and cheese.

Dessert Pizzas

Copying here the content I removed :

Another up and coming type of "pizza" is "Fruit Pizza." This is a dish commonly served as a dessert. Instead of pizza dough you use cookie dough to make a giant cookie. On top of this base you spread whipped cream, a type of custard, or cream cheese that takes place of the sauce. You then cover the top with your choice fruits, refrigerate and eat. This is a simple easy to make dessert that is just on of the hundreds of varieties of pizza.:

The reason I pulled this out of the pizza styles section is that it is a MUCH bigger stretch of the definition of pizza than anything else in that section. It does not involve pizza dough, does not involve cheese or tomato sauce, and is not even baked. By the definition at the top of the page, this is not a pizza at all.

Should there be a separate section for the bizarre not-quite-pizzas? Like this sort of fruit concoction, or various kinds of chocolate pizza? (I've seen some where the 'crust' is chocolate and some where the crust is bread/pastry and chocolate is spread over top.) AmethystPhoenix 00:35, 20 June 2007 (UTC) pizza is delicios[reply]
