Truth.....and deep-dish sucks IMO. You might as well be eating lasagna.

St Louis took NY style and made it even thinner and crispier. Best in the nation.

Interesting, def didn't know that one. I'll have to have vic use the water we dechlorinate for our water bottles next time she makes me scratch pizza

i would not just dechlorinate ,there is a bunch of shit in tap water ( i know from keeping a reef tank), you can call up your local utility and ask them for a water report. it usually provides all of the stuff they test for, all the dissolved chemical. Well more like dissolved elements, like calcium (hard water) and metals. it won't register the amount of pharmaceuticals dissolved into your tap water ....
get an RO/DI filter to purify as much as you can.

The (good) pizza joints around here do water testing on a weekly basis (tap water out here sucks). One local owner (came from Brooklyn) says he tries to get the Ph balance the same as New York City tap water.

There used to be a place near ft hood that was so bad they brought it door to door at the barracks and you could barter for it. Crust tasted like cardboard but I wasn't gonna complain when you got a large for $3-5

pH is just one facet of water chemistry...

Reminds me of some of the girls in Okinawa and the Philippines...oops...nevermind.

That was before I became an upstanding citizen with high morals and all.
