- labawi 7y agoHow big are your pizzas?
- lultimouomo 7y agoItalian pizzas are sized for one person; I think that's true for a large part of the world.
- TeMPOraL 7y agoIn Poland, a large pizza will make two people full, and four people each wishing for "just one more slice".
- Consultant32452 7y agoCan we talk diameters? In the US at the big 3 pizza chains a "large" pizza is approximately 14" in diameter, usually cut into 8 slices. It should satisfy 2-4 adults.
- jrugk 7y ago14" == 35.56 cm
- philliphaydon 7y agoPretty sure I could eat that myself.
- Consultant32452 7y agoI just checked one of the big chains. A single slice of plain cheese pizza is 295 calories. So an 8 slice "large" pizza would be 2,360 calories. Don't get me wrong, I've done it before, but that's a lot of food for an average adult.
- philliphaydon 7y agoI Guess it also depends if it’s a thin base, or pan. I just love food. Sometimes hard to stop eating. Especially when I go taiwan or japan. I always put on a lot of weight.
- TeMPOraL 7y agoAssuming that's accurate (I feel they may be overshooting here, but I guess it depends on the chain), that's little more than daily requirement for a single adult. It matches my experience - I can keep myself fully fed for a whole day on a single large pizza. It also reinforces my point - such a pizza might suffice as a dinner for two, but will hardly satisfy more people.
- toyg 7y agoIt’s not just diameter - Italian pizza is thin and light, American pizza is deep and heavy. Hence why America moved towards “sharing” formats, because eating a whole dish is challenging for a single person.
- usrlocaletc 7y agoThat's too vague because American pizza includes thin crust, regular, stuffed-crust, and Chicago-style (thick, pan-style). You gotta be more specific when ordering. ;)
- mc32 7y agoThere is thin crust vs Chicago deep dish and “Sicilian”. Some thin crus places are really thin. There is also the matter of toppings. You can have traditional like four seasons, margherita, or you can have bbq chicken with eggs and potato topping.
- usrlocaletc 7y agoTeams ought to be grouped on the same religious wavelength (for/against) regarding pineapple and anchovies. Diversity in this respect would be quite deleterious to morale.
- Consultant32452 7y agoI've had "shepherd's pie" pizza before. They used mashed potatoes for the sauce. It was pretty tasty, but I could feel the carbs.
- TeMPOraL 7y agoIn Poland, when you order from pizza chains (as opposed to regular restaurants, which tend to have overpriced, undersized and undertopped "italian" pizzas), the "large" size circles around 40cm in diameter (which Google tells me is around 15.7"), cut into 8 pieces. Thickness varies, but you usually don't get very thin pizzas unless you ask specially for that option. 14" is closer to medium size, which depending on earlier meals may just about satisfy two adults, or leave them hungry. With four adults, I can only see it leaving them wanting another pizza.
- labawi 7y agoWeight would be a better measure. Over here, large pizzas can be in excess of 1kg.
- usrlocaletc 7y agoEven area per person wouldn't cut it. 0) Kilocalories and 1) g of protein per cm^3 per person perhaps.
- Consultant32452 7y agoJust checked one of the big chains, a single slice of cheese pizza is 295 calories, or 2,360 per pizza. edit: here we just say calories, but it's meant "kilocalories"
- el_cujo 7y agoShould be asking "how big are your team members?"
