OPINION! Deep dish pizza isn't pizza, it's casserole. Or some kind of savory pie. Not pizza.
Heh. I was waiting for that. Kerfauxffle time!
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

sox, I've heard from many quarters that Matthew's is worth the trip. I should actually get there for lunch some time since it's way closer to here than home.

I like crusty pizza. Although the few times I've seen pizza from Italy, the crust was thin. So maybe that was intended.

Hm. See, I make pies, and the thing with pies is, they all have crisco/butter/fat crusts. Chicken pot pies, mince pies, all of them, even quiche. Deep-dish pizza has the shape of a pie, and I think most old-school Italians will still call it a pie, but the crust is made of yeast dough.
So I would call deep-dish pizza still in the pizza family, despite its obvious oddity and deliciousness. Because if you took a pie crust, and made a deep-dish pizza out of it, it would taste very, very wrong.
OMG this is the Is a brioche a bread or a cake? debate all over again!!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
There is no thick/thin crust factor. There is only thin.

A big YES to both of these. Though deep-dish can be tasty, it's still the "Eat a muffin, whitey!" of the pizza world.

Shrift, you don't need extra CTA cards if you are traveling together. The card is even smart enough to count multiple transfers.

But it is useless re: delivery. Useless.
If you're going to eat pizza and watch a game, a dainty brick oven baby ain't gonna do it.

But those deep dish spinach pizzas at Giordano's in Chicago are pretty tasty too.
Mmmm. Giordanos.

Pfft! A pizza is not defined by its crust alone! Deep-dish pizza is definitely pizza! It just has more crust than those nasty-ass "thin-crust" pizzas, which I strongly suspect are actually composed of crackers.

Wrod to the max. Crust exists only to have a place to put the sauce and toppings. If I wanted bread I'd buy bread.
