I've already said enough honest but controversial things about pasta, football, and pizza to be banned for life from entering Italy, so I might as well add this: Chicago style pizza is in fact quite good, despite my usual preference for thin crust pizza.

Me after seeing this post shitting on one of my favorite pizza styles: 😰😭💀
Me after seeing this comment getting all the well deserved upvotes: 🥹🥰🙂↕️
I only ever hear people hate on deep dish who have never tried it (from a good restaurant) before 🤔
Fuckin nobody does deep dish like Chicago.
Ive never had anything remotely close to what I had in South Chicago . I still think about 20 years later.
The food in any big city is really good
Everybody's allowed their opinion, but you can fuck all the way off talking shit about Chicago dogs! The combination of beef fankfurter, poppyseed bun, quality mustard, relish, chopped onion, tomato, sport peppers, celery salt... It sounds weird, but people who try it usually love them! You have to not be obsessed with ketchup though. One of the things I really miss from working in Chicago for a bit...
How are you going to describe a Chicago dog and forget the pickle?
That was intentional. I love pickles, but not on anything. But that's not the Chicago dog's fault, that's my journey! So I pick them off and eat the pickle separately...
I'll take a deep dish pie or that dog. Fuck y'all if you're a hater.
Detroit style deep dish is the best deep dish pizza, Chicago style is vomit lasagna in a cardboard cup, fight me!
Detroit style isn't deep dish, it's pan pizza lol
It's both pan and deep dish, making it infinitely better than Chicago-style tomato soup in soggy cardboard pizza!
Deeeeeeeetroiiiiiiit
I don't fight. Just eat. I'd be happy to eat a Detroit pie.
Your weak stomach can't handle it, and thats okay. But thats no reason to get upset and spew lies and hate
"Chicago Style" pizza isn't deep dish, it's square cut tavern style pizza. Yeah, deep dish isn't that great.
The hot dog is indeed Chicago style and it's good
I don't know what's in the lower left but it looks good
That's Italian beef in the lower right and it's really good.
So 1 out of 4 is Chicago style
Source: Lived here my whole life with over half of it in the city itself
Inside Chicago the thin tavern is “Chicago style” outside of Chicago deep dish is “Chicago style”
I know it sucks but you can’t change everyone’s mind.
The world needs to know that Chicagoans rarely order deep dish
The world rarely orders deep dish too, usually only once, minutes before having their dinner ruined!
"your cousins from Michigan are coming, get a deep dish with the pizzas"
Hilariously similar to a conversation I heard at work. But swap the cousins from Michigan with the Milwaukee office
"cheese only, you know how they are"
Im gonna say it, tavern style pizza is just a worse New Haven. Y'all just stole their pizza to distract everyone from the fact that the original Chicago style pizza sucks.
Ooh burn
And when something is a crime against god and man we call it “Altoona-style”
GO BEARS!!!
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BEAAAAARS!
So many bettah ways to deserve the heart attahk.
Humanity is lucky there isn't a "Florida style" used nation wide.
That’s just meth.
Ok well no, it is not just meth. We can make fun of it without needing to make things up. Geez.
It's meth, and pepperoni. It's meth and hot wings. Meth with chicken and ranch. It's a whole lot of things. Not just meth!
As a New Yorker whos heavily biased against Chicago this is just untrue. I mean sure deep dish sucks but tavern style is almost as good as New Haven (possibly because its just New Haven). Other than that Italian beef is good and the Chicago dog is amazing (the only place ketchup belongs is in the trash).
Chicago has some of the best food in the world. One week there and you have to let your belt out a notch.
I feel like the food is really a strong point for Chicago? I get da Bears, totally, but the food? Not sure
Chicago has an incredible food scene across the entire cuisine spectrum and only 1 thing on the list is "Chicago Style" (the hot dog)
