Is pizza that bad? I home cook all pizza ($1-$2 per pizza), and it doesn't seem too bad if you look at the ingredients. Pizza + salad seems perfectly healthy.

Flour + tomato + cheese + onion + garlic + olive oil + whatever you put on your pizza.
- chime 16y agoFlour is what causes me to gain weight. I cut out breads and pasta and I lose weight, no matter how little exercise I get.
- jules 16y agoFat is what causes me to gain weight. I cut out fat and I lose weight. This is no surprise that you lose weight when you your weight was stable and cut something, anything with calories out. That said, if your goal is to lose weight then pizza may not be for you. But that wasn't the goal posed in the article.
- awolf 16y agoHomemade or not, pizza is mostly processed carbohydrates and grease.
- code_duck 16y agoIf you make it at home, do thin crust, go light on (or skip) the cheese and heavy on the veggies, it must reasonably healthy, I agree.
- dkasper 16y ago$1-$2 per pizza are you kidding me? I'd like to see the breakdown of that since I make pizza often. Just the cheese costs at least $1-$2 for me.
- jules 16y agoReally? I just checked my cheese in the fridge and it costs €3.83 per kg. At that price that would mean about half a kg of cheese on one pizza. Anyway: - flour: lets say 200g for €0.10 - cheese: 100g for €0.40 - olive oil: say €0.10 - mushed tomatoes: €0.10 - onion: €0.10 - yeast, salt, water, etc: €0.10 I think I'm being pretty generous here with the amounts and the cost. Total is €1.
