Do you like pizza? How many pieces do you usually eat when you get one?

Two pieces is enough for me - pepperoni pizza

My granddaughter was here for the weekend and since pizza is one of her favorite foods (no wonder she farts huh? lol)and I didn't really feel like cooking I order a pepperoni pizza for our dinner last night. I'm not crazy about pepperoni but she likes it so I deal with it and don't like to bother telling them to put it on just half of the pizza. She ate two pieces and I ate my usual two which is all I can ever eat of pizza because for me it's very filling. Is pizza a favorite food of yours? How many pieces do you eat when you get one? Do you eat cold pizza (I don't like it cold!)?

It is a regular dough for the pizza, but I use potato as a topping. What I do it is slice the raw potatoes, and put them in a pan with a little oil, garlic, rosemary and salt, and sautee them. And use the potato as a pizza topping... I love it! I just have it tonight... mmm ... so good!

It all depends on the size of the slice and the type of crust.Let's say they are regular size slices, with thin crust, I can eat about 5 slices because the are so thin. With hand tossed, I can eat about 4 slices. With NY style, which is a medium crust but the slices are much bigger than hand tossed, I can only eat two. And with Deep dish, I can only eat two.i am sorry you don't like pepperoni. If your pizza place is like ours you can get a pizza with pepperoni on half and the other half can have anything other topping you would like.

Try to remember. With your half you can get adventurous or have just extra cheese.You should enjoy a pizza.

I love pizza..I can easily eat 4 or 5 pieces..but I keep it down to one or 2, and only every other month or so. I love it with pineapple, onions, ham and shrimp. Don't say ick to the pineapple on it until u try it. BTW -- it is proven...pizza is a fart-free food.

BTW -- have you tried lact-aid. My son had terrible gas from lactose intolerance. We started giving him lact-aid when ever he had any dairy products and the problem reduced considerably.

Lact-aid is also a brand of milk you can try --- it is worth the effort. It is an over the counter thing....lactic acid (I think it is) is something that your body normally produces, but in some people not enough is produced.

I love hawaiian pizza and felt the same way when people turned their noses up at the thought of pineapple on pizza. I think it's awesome! Yes, we have tried the lactaid (sp) and it doesn't work for her.

Pepperoni is one of my favourite pizzas, and it depends on the maker of the pizza and the type of base as to how much I eat! If it's a pizza hut pizza with thin base, I'll eat all the pizza, but if it's a pizza made by the local pizza maker, I can only manage half. I'll reheat the rest the next day!

I eat pizza a lot and I don't have a flatulance problem for one. For two, asking if I like pizza is like asking if you have to breathe to survive. I love pizza. I buy Tostino's pizza's from Walmart for 99 cents all the time.. and I eat them pretty much every Friday night for dinner. I will eat it other days as well if I need. I pretty much can and will eat pizza every single day. I eat the entire frozen Tostino's pizza's alone. I usually eat 2 pieces if I get ordered pizza. and sometimes if I'm hungry enough I'll do 3 or 4. But i eat little amounts. I love hot pizza and cold pizza. The best is pizza left over and fresh from the fridge the next day! and I only eat cheese pizza. I'll do pepperoni but I usually pick them off.

For me I think it's the idea of the cold cheese that makes me not like cold pizza. I also love the Tostino's and always get it when I get to Walmart.

It's the cold melted cheese that I don't like! I'm lucky enough to have a super walmart near me and they always have such awesome prices on food!

You don't eat cold cheese? or is it just melted cheese that's now cold that you don't like? Walmart is great... I just wish we had a super walmart with the whole grocery store around me. Because I'd never go grocery shopping again!

pizza king pizza - pizza king pizza royal feast
I love love love pizza, can't you tell, How many pieces I eat really depends on where we get it from, Usally if it's the normal triangler cut pizza I can eat 2 pieces. But If it's from this place in Indiana called Pizza King they cut there pizza there into small squares so small that either in 3 bites or less and it's gone I can eat about 10 LOL I also hate cold pizza I either have to warm it up in the oven or the microwave We love pizza so much be bought one of those pizza cookers where you put the pizza on and this litle thing spins around and cooks the pizza

Whenever we order a pizza it all gets eaten eventually of course, but when it first gets here how many pieces I eat depends on how hungry I am. I will have anywhere between 2 or 4 pieces at a time. The next day if I have some left over pizza from the night before I have to heat it up, ugggghhhh I can't stand cold pizza. Have a great weekend! PurpleTeddyBear.

Pizza is one of my favorite foods, ctry. I would eat some every day if my waistline permitted, lol. Two slices usually fill me up also. I will sometimes order one when my daughter comes over to visit and we will share it. She's such a comic that she always jokes about pizza being our diet food. Occasionally I will order one when I am alone and store the extra pieces in my freezer for a later date.

I almost always order a pizza when my granddaughter is here since it's her favorite and gives me more time to spend with her since I'm not in the kitchen cooking.

When I was younger, I ate an entire medium pizza and didn't gain any weight. Now I look at half of one and gain weight. But I eat half. I like cold pizza if there are lots of ingredients. My favorite is veggie pizza with mushrooms. Until I had high blood pressure, I used to alternate with pineapple and ham. Until I got ulcers, I used to have tomato sauce on it. Aren't health problems a pain? But I still like it once in awhile. Take care

My favorite is veggie pizza too and I often order the pizza for one. I seem to be the only one in my family who likes that type.

I could never eat a whole pizza. Sometimes I order the pizza for one with only 4 big pieces and can't even eat that whole thing.

I really really love pizza. Of course when I order a personal-sized pizza, I eat the whole thing! But if it's a medium or family-sized pizza, I usually eat around two to four slices. Five if I'm really super hungry, but five's pretty rare for me. I don't like cold pizza either. It's best eaten hot. I love the gooey melted cheese. :)

We are the same. Because two slices is enough for me. You should not eat too much pizza (also your granddaughter) because it contains fats, sugar, You might get diabetes from pizza. :)

I usually only have pizza when my granddaughter is here and I know it's a treat for her because her mom seldom gets it.

when we order pizza or make our own, i generally have about 2 or 3 slices. i really like pizza and we have it about twice in month or so. We have a bread maker so we usually make our own rather than buying it.

I have to be in the mood for pizza. I dont care for pepperoni either. I like sausage,onions and green olives on my pizza. I usually eat two or three slices depending on how big they are cut. I love cold pizza,sometimes better than hot.

Hello! I love pizza. Having pizza from time to time is good, or when i'm craving for it. Since my stepkids left we haven't had any pizza at all, it's like we're cleansing our body, it's tainted with pizza LOL!. When the kids were here pizza is everyday! almost...and I got tired of it actually. Before I used to get excited about having pizza and would enjoy it but having it almost everyday is sickening. I usually can consume 2 slices. I love the pepperoni pizza, the super supreme in pizza hut, love the double stuffed crust at the side with sausage and cheese...yummy! I don't really like cold pizza, I prefer having it still hot and soft. ciao! c",)
