    Did you take into account that the crust takes away area from the “filling”? Because me and my husband also once did the math (not sure if we were frugal, bored or broke) and it all came down on whether you eat/enjoy the crust or not

            I’m guessing because the crust can be delicious on its own when the pizza is made by someone who knows their shit. Or, just drop a bit of olive oil on that fucker, no extra stuff needed.

            Of course it’s a matter of taste. The more dipping sauces and strong, complex flavors you use, the more you need them. There’s nothing bad about it, but it is pretty cool to be able to appreciate simple tastes, as getting those right is way harder when cooking.

            Honestly my first thought was a big fat crust being dipped in ranch and somehow this felt disgusting (but to each their own).

          We would just ask for extra marinara sauce or donair sauce on the side before the prepackaged dipping sauces were introduced. Dipping crusts in sauce has been around for a very long time…even where you live…

          One of the most common dipping sauces is the same sauce put on the pizza, just put some aside next time you make a pizza.
