Chef's Table: Pizza (2022– )
2/10
Is this satire?
5 February 2023
Never thought I'd start hating a dish because of a Netflix documentary, but here I am. This is basically one gigantic ad for one guy's pizza place... And I made the mistake of watching this.

The show starts off by proclaiming that "the best pizza IN THE WORLD is made in Phoenix, Arizona".

HAHAHHAHA.

Now, if you live anywhere outside the US, you're probably getting how dumb this is gonna get. Hysterical laughter from me at this point, because I'm not American and I don't feel the need to proclaim everything my country produces as "THE BEST IN THE WORLD".

So Chris went to Italy once and learned how to make pizza. He was surrounded by women you know, and they taught him the Mystical Art of Cooking, which for most people is a basic life skill. Chris is very proud because even though he is a man, he can also cook, which apparently makes him magic!

Also, he had the following revelations: food can be made from fresh ingredients, meals are generally better if you don't use canned products, not everything has to be based on corn, and fruit makes for perfectly good desert.

Chris, I saw your pizza and it's okay. It doesn't look terrible, but THE BEST PIZZA IN THE WORLD is definitely not burnt.

*I'm not Italian. Like that would matter, but I feel like Americans need this kind of information to be less confused.
