At Domino's, there is a sliding scale of topping amounts. As the total number of toppings go up, the amount per topping goes down. Large 1-topping has 48 peppe

Large 1-topping has 48 pepperoni
Large 2-topping has 30 (from memory, many years ago)
So a double pepperoni pizza has 60, not 96 slices.
- hunter2_ 7y agoSo it costs the same upcharge to go from 0 to 48 and from 48 to 60? That's pretty weird.
- ThrustVectoring 7y agoIt's less about food costs and more about the complexity and resultant labor costs, I think.
- mrob 7y agoIf that was the case then the first pepperoni slices would cost more, not the last ones. It's obviously market segmentation: somebody who really loves pepperoni will be willing to pay more per slice.
- nemo44x 7y agoThe cook time may go up since there is more mass.
- hunter2_ 7y agoThick/dense components like dough/sauce/cheese I could see how the cook time increases more than linearly as the mass increases linearly. But with other toppings, there's no way the cook time goes up more from 48 to the hypothetical 96 than it does from 0 to 48.
- Broken_Hippo 7y agoIt does affect the way it bakes and the texture, though, and can affect the way it browns. Vegetables have water. Meats have fat.
- tedmiston 7y agoDoes this apply across toppings too? Like if a large has 48 pepperoni, but I get it with pepperoni and sausage, do I get 48x pepperoni + 48x sausage, 24x each, or something else?
- shawnz 7y agoIt would be a 2-topping pizza so that means you would get 30 pepperoni (and 30 sausage?) according to what they are saying.
