Wait, so warm pizza base cold toppings… that’s just reinventing the (open) sandwich isn’t it?
Definite crime.

Burn the city to cook the pizzas!!!

This is some Rhode Island behavior and needs to be nipped in the bud ASAP

It’s called “Ohio style” (i saw this before)

pittsburgh food is generally pretty bad. One of their most famous places is primanti brothers where their signature dish is a sloppy oily sandwich with fries in the middle. Would not recommend it sober
Another signature is “chipped ham” which is basically all of the small scraps left over from a deli slicer cutting ham
They have a chain called “the bagel factory” where their whitefish bagel is fucking disgusting. Oily crap that tastes expired. They also exclusively use folgers for espresso (I have a buddy that worked there)
There was a place called “the original hotdog shop”. The hotdogs were OK if you were drunk enough. The big selling point is that a small fry was literally a paper bag filled to the brim with fries. Large fry was more akin to a fucking tote bag. It was the place where drunk college students went at 1am, or where cocaine deals went down. Closed permanently during COVID
Went to a place called “Thai Place” that was completely incapable of making any sort of spicy food. On a range of 1-10 I ordered 100 and it was only as spicy as sriracha.
There is a chain known as “mad mex” which serves nothing resembling mexican food. It’s got a yuppie vibe to the whole thing but they have no clue on how to make a burrito. One of their creations is a “Gobblerito” which is turkey, cranberry sauce, gravy, etc made into a burrito. At a mexican place.
There was another yuppie place called “the yard” where all they did was sell a tiny greasy grilled cheese for $20. They had a bunch of beer that they would exclusively sell in long ass beakers that looked like a blunderbuss attached to a volumetric flask. Every wall was covered in TVs blasting football
There is a bar near University of Pittsburgh where all they serve is budweiser, and gigantic pitchers of mixed drinks with gummy worms and brownies and shit.
There is literally a place called “Eat n’ Park” where you shovel fried slop into your face while you sit in your car.
Literally everything includes Heinz ketchup or has heinz on the table. It’s a source of pride for yinzers for god knows why
Pittsburgh is cool and all, but don’t go there for the food.

But why?

I heard that one of the reason for cold cheese on the pizza was for drunk college kids would eat the pizza right after being served late night and would burn the roof of there mouths so they did cold cheese so that wouldn’t happen. Idk if that true.

Basically Lunchables for adults?

You know, for some reason this actually sounds like it could be kinda tasty. I saw some other users mention lunchables, and that’s the kind of vibe it gives me as well

It’s like a grown ups lunchable

I’d go home and throw the pizza right in the oven for about 3 to 4 minutes and then eat it.

Ok, no I actually don’t hate this. Now me personally, I would want the pepperoni to be warm so you could just do that separately, but cold cheese is pretty good! I imagine it’d be like toasting bread and putting cheese on top (and like sauce and whatever else) and that really doesn’t taste bad at all. It’s just different from normal pizzas

Yes this is a crime

That pizza 🍕 looks like a birthday cake 🎂 but that’s should not considered a pizza.

This is Ohio Valley pizza. Not really a Pittsburgh thing, more a WV/Ohio thing. It’s a good change of pace pie. Cheese melting while you eat it and chunky tomato sauce, it’s solid stuff.

Not a pizza crime in my opinion in Long Island there is a place called lil vincents that’s known for there 3 am extra cold cheese topping slice

the ultimate lunchables

This pie is just lost, that’s all. This originated in Steubenville, Ohio and has spread to become known as Ohio Valley pizza. Personally, I like seeing all of the unique American pizzas have a day in the sun.

Who in gods name saw melted cheese and thought “gross, that needs to be cold”.

I will defend DiCarlo’s with my very life.
Are you telling me you think cold cheese is gross? You’ve never eaten cold cheese and liked it?
I_ReadThe_Comments
I remember seeing this where the pizza is cooked and cheese is melted but then the cold cheese is put on extra. Working at a pizza place as a kid, I ate so many cold toppings

Yes.
And their punishment is a harsh and cruel one:
They have to live in Pittsburg
