To eat a whole pizza?!

[viixie]

Was talking to my Mum about pizza. When we buy a frozen one from the shop, we will sit down say on a Friday night and eat a whole one each no problem. My Mum thinks that's piggish as she has about three slices 🥴

I can easily eat 1 and a half supermarket pizzas in one go, or one medium Domino's. In fact I'm going to an Italian for dinner tomorrow, think I'll order myself a nice big pizza

Can proudly say that I can eat a full large dominos pizza on my own

Right! I’m going out to get pizzas tomorrow thanks to this thread!
1 each of course

I probably will eat 2/3 or so of a Tesco cheese and tomato. I always add chargrilled chicken, black olives and sometimes chorizo though and splosh it with olive oil and Tabasco.

I’d normally have half a frozen pizza but with something on the side... garlic bread and salad most often.

Also surely the number of slices someone can eat depends on the slice size. Personally I only eat one slice for dinner, if the slice is the whole pizza!

Quite,.

Just like the Magic Chicken.

OP: "My chicken will feed my family of 8 teenage sporty slim kids, a DH who hasa VERY LABOUR INTENSIVE JOB, and little old me for 6 meals! and I have to chuck the legs away coz no-one eats them LOLOLOL !!!"
Everyone else: Howwwww? It lasts us 2 maybe..."
OP: "Because it was a 150kg chicken"
EE: "Ohhh, yeah we buy a 1kg chicken"

DH and his mate once ate an entire costco pizza each in one sitting.

These are thick based and 18" ... :S

It’s not whether you could eat a whole pizza, it’s whether you should eat a whole pizza. Completely different mindsets.

I used to be massively overweight (18.5 stone) and I'd polish off a large pizza no problem. I'm now 9 stone and I can polish off a large pizza no problem.

Just because someone is fat or thin has no relation to how much pizza they can pack away

I could easily eat 2

Could I? Yes!
Should I? Probably not every day, but a weekly quick tea absolutely.

I eat a whole pizza all the time. Easily.

We always eat one each, we’d all be hungry if we only had a couple of slices especially if there was no chips and side salad to accompany it. We’re not fat.

One each here! Unless we have something else with it, chips or wedges or something. 3 slices is nothing!
(I could eat 2 if I’m really hungry 🤤)

We always share supermarket pizzas and have a big salad with them. On the rare occasions we have Dominos I have a personal size. I’m still overweight though .

My kids love the frozen peppperoni ones of 4 cheese from Sainsburys. they're 99p. It's basically a slightly larger piece of cheese on toast, my cheese on toast would have more cheese on it and be more filling.

I could eat two of them easily.

Take away like Papa Johns we get two large and two sides between four of us. Sometimes there are a couple of pieces left, often not.

I agree! I'm a size 8 and eat huge portions, we eat healthy through the week and have treats like (a whole) pizza (and chips) at the weekend. My kids aren't overweight either.

A 10" thin crust, yes. Anything bigger I would either share with DH or eat the rest for lunch the next day.

I don't understand people who want chips or wedges with pizza. I would rather eat more pizza

A pizza should be eaten whole, it's a single person serving. Sharing a pizza is like sharing a burger, yes you can but it's a bit weird.

Dp and I only have half a pizza each but that's only so that we can leave room for half a Cheesecake each for afters.

I feel hungry after a whole supermarket pizza. But the other day I decided to take a top tip from MN and had one with an absolutely massive salad. I could only eat one piece of pizza and I was full for well over a week.

With Domino's, as a teenager, I ate a whole large one with no problem. Nowadays I get a medium. With a couple less slices, it would probably be enough, but I love it and (sacrilege) I don't like next day pizza, so I still eat the whole thing. Must be people like me who are responsible for the obesity problem 🙄

DH sometimes eats two! I eat one.

Off topic, I remember going to Frankie and Bennie as teens in the 90s and their largest pizza would feed four teens easily. Went back last year and it a bit meh and much smaller.

OP you need to slice the whole pizza into thirds, then you’ve only had 3 slices

I usually have half a pizza as I prefer to eat it with sides like salad, coleslaw or potato wedges but if I was having it by itself I’d probably have a whole one.

She slices it into 3 😉

To be fair I used to easily eat a while one and extras, but as I get older I’ve had to adjust my eating. To maintain a healthy weight (not slim, just healthy) I’ve had to adjust my portions. Over time my stomach has struck. Maybe she has that too.

Who cares?
