broccoli does not belong on pizza.I hear you, Kat. That is what I said, then I tried it. I think it was actually broccoli and garlic. It was at a dive-y little Italian restaurant and pizzaria near my college. The broccoli goes on the pizza raw, so it still has some tooth to it, after baking. It was very tasty.
1960: After reading Booker T. Washington's Up From Slavery, J.E. Davis begins his support of black colleges. Through the subsequent years, Winn-Dixie supports Bethune-Cookman College, the National Council of Negro Women, Rust College, Florida Memorial College, the Tuskegee Institute, and many others.
This was the only tidbit that tied it to race at all, in that link. I don't think I'm crazy, but I can't remember where I got my information from. And it's not like they would probably advertise which type of store they were in a nice reflective look back, like that. But this was the deep south in the early part of the last century, and there definitely was segregation. So, I don't know.
broccoli does not belong on pizza.
Yes, it does, if it's next to chicken on a pizza from East End pizza. Other places, no, not so much.
I loved the name Piggly-Wiggly. Hearing genteel elderly ladies say "Oh, I must stop off at the Piggly-Wiggly for butter." It could only have been better if it had been "The Eight-Ball".
Timelies,
I have to go back and finish the old thread yet.
I'm in the "if the crust isn't worth eating, the pizza isn't worth eating" camp. If the only choice is Papa John's, the dogs get the part with the inedible overly-sweet sauce on it, and I keep the crusts and garlic sauce for myself.
This is me, except for the dogs part. I'll eat Papa John's, but their sauce is much too sweet for me. The crusts and garlic sauce are great, though.
My favorite "weird" pizza is sausage and pineapple. I was skeptical at first, but was pleasantly surprised. It was the standard order for my old gaming group. The local Dominos came to expect our order every Friday night. With the current group no one can agree on anything so we normally just order individual meals from a local italian place that delivers instead.
I prefer to order from a local pizza place called imaginitively enough Pizza House (who in addition to good pizza have absolutely incredible italian beef on garlic bread sandwiches), but when there's a large group we tend to order from Dominos because it's cheaper and easier.
Piggly-Wiggly is definitely an inner-city chain in Milwaukee. Don't know about anywhere else.
I shopped at Winn-Dixie and Publix when I was stationed in Florida for a couple months.
I love Publix. They are the bestest grocery store ever, and are still my favorite, to this day. They're so clean and shiny, and they give kids free cookies at the bakery, every time you go, and they have the little carts, so kids can have a cart, too. They are the bestest, and are also awesome.
But Cindy, it would still be broccoli. Brocooli is a vegetation abomination (which fwiw, would make a great band name).
There are (or used to be) many Piggly-Wigglys in rural Minnesota.
Little-known fact: Piggly-Wiggly was founded by Joseph Piggly and Archibald Wiggly.
Little known because I made it up....
Kristin, Sasha is so cute. The ear thing? Killer! And the pic of them in the snow is all, "huh? wha?"
