To complain that my pizza wasn’t cut for me?

Spent £30 with Papa John’s. Love their pizzas. Special garlic sauce is amazing!

Anyway, they didn’t cut my pizza. AIBU to have complained through the Just Eat App?

Have been told by the cocky manager to consider buying a pizza cutter

Have them semi regularly as a treat and they’re always cut into slices, as most take away are!

H thinks I’m being silly.

Obviously this isn’t a world shattering issue, of course. But interested to see if I’m unreasonably unfair here to complain

You can see perfectly well that the poster is referring to the US. I wouldn’t call a pizza a pie either, but I can work out that not everyone is the same.

Thank you, Toe. ☺️
Not to mention that at 24/11/2025 02:48 I did post history of the term. 🤓
It always seems so obtuse when someone insists that a thing can only have one name 🙄, but then I remind myself that not everyone travels outside of their own country, or their own village and that some posters might not understand the phrase being discussed is genuinely Italian, having been named pizza pie by Italians and adopted into American English.

I hope can we all just agree it's delicious?

Can’t believe what I just read. Does the OP own a knife and fork? If so, put your fork in the pizza to steady it, then use the knife to cut a slice. There you go, well done! You can even decide for yourself how big the slice should be! Every day’s a school day.

There is/was a thing called calzone though, which is rather like a pie. Not sure why anyone would want one though

Which is calzone, not pizza.

Which is great if you're at home. Not so great if you're in a hotel or something.
Which is why I have a tiny bit of sympathy for the OP as I often order a pizza if I'm working away and staying in a hotel. I wouldn't complain though!

I know this is a zombie thread but I'll still bite.

I own multiple pizza cutters. which is great if i'm at home. Not so great if I'm ordering from a hotel!

Just because you can, it doesn’t mean you should. How tedious for others to get half way through a thread only to realise that it’s from last year.

OMG get a life. Some right nit pickers on here. If mumsnet have an issue with people posting on old threads then they should disable comments on the thread.
