Its a pointless thing, most people probably don't notice, but its wrong.

  • There's a place by me called Ranch Pizza and they do not have ranch pizzas. They have pizzas. They have ranch. They do not have pizza with a ranch base however.

    • I mean, that doesn't sound like they lying though.

      • I feel like if you're calling yourself Ranch Pizza, you're beholden to having it on the menu. They aren't called Ranch and Pizza after all.

        • Its a ranch, they have pizza. Sounds appropriate. I would expect a "ranch pizza" on the menu to be a house special, not ranch flavor.

            • I read your original comment as they have "a ranch". yea, whats ups with the name. Missed opportunities all around.

              • I mean maybe Bill Microsoft and Thomas Nintendo's good buddy John Ranch started the place idk, but even then it would irk me on a deeply spiritual level.
